The work entitled "Signal Processing in the Information Age" will develop new underpinning Signal Processing and Machine Learning tools for the defence community. This core research programme is jointly led and coordinated by four universities;
University of Edinburgh, Heriot-Watt University, Queen's University Belfast and University of Strathclyde.
As well as the core grant, three application themed grants have also been awarded on the following topics:
- Imaging and Detection through Complex Media (University of Glasgow and University of Exeter)
- Electromagnetic Environment (Imperial College London and University College London)
- Acoustic Signal and Information Processing in the Underwater Environment (University of Liverpool and National Oceanography Centre, Southampton)
