ABSTRACT

In 50 short years, DSP has progressed from quality signal processing

to entirely new fields of computing, machine learning, and artificial

intelligence (AI). It has also penetrated into almost every area of

human endeavour, from manufacturing to commerce to healthcare,

pointing to new directions with profound impact on world economy

and humanwelfare.Withmachine learning andAI on par or surpass-

ing human performances in areas such as pattern recognition and

complex decision making (in Chess and Go), we are on the brink of a

brave new era when even the most personal human services such as

medicine are increasing dependent on AI.
