Prof .Silvana Dellepiane graduated in 1986 with honours. In 1990 she received the PhD degree in Electronic Engineering and Computer Science. In 1992 she became a Researcher (Assistant Professor) in the Department of Biophysical and Electronic Engineering (DIBE), University of Genoa, where she is an Associated Professor in the ING_INF03 area. She has taught in Signal Theory and Pattern Recognition. At present she is professor of Electrical Communications, Statistical Methods, Signal and Image Processing and Recognition, in the courses of Telecommunications Engineering and Bioengineering. She is responsible for the NUMIP research area of the Signal Processing and Telecommunications (SP&T) laboratory at DIBE. Prof. Dellepiane has gained wide scientific and technical experience in multi-dimensional data processing. Her main research interests include the use of context and fuzzy systems for multi-dimensional data processing, segmentation, supervised methods for the processing of remote sensing SAR images, and non-linear adaptive processing of digital signals. Her application domains are, mainly, telemedicine and remote sensing. Silvana Dellepiane is a reviewer for various journals. She was invited at some international conferences and schools for tutorials and lessons. She has participated, at the organization and scientific levels, in the research activities concerning various CNR, ASI, MIUR and UE projects. She is a member of the Technical Committee “Bio Imaging and Signal Processing” of IEEE Signal Processing Society
Sonia Nardotto obtained the “Laurea” degree (BSc) in March 2010 and the “Laurea Magistrale” degree (MSc) in September 2012 both in Biomedical Engineering at University of Genoa. She developed her Master thesis on “An automatic method for segmentation of multiparametric medical volumes”.
Since November 2012 she has been cooperating with NUMIP area of the Signal & Image Processing group at DITEN (Department of Naval Electrical Electronical and Telecommunication Engineering) in research activities concerning Image Processing and Data Fusion algorithms. Since January 2013 she is a Ph.D. student in Information and Knowledge Science and Technology: her research topics are Techniques of non-linear processing, segmentation, data fusion and analysis of the quality of digital images. She is co-author of paper presented at international conferences. She is also IEEE Student Member associated to IEEE Signal Processing Society .

Serena Po
nte obtained the “Laurea” degree (BSc) in September 2012 and the “Laurea Magistrale” degree (MSc) in October 2014 both in Biomedical Engineering at University of Genoa. She developed her Master thesis on “Biofeedback methods for monitoring patients during rehabilitation at home” at NUMIP with the Signal & Image Processing group at DITEN (Department of Naval Electrical Electronical and Telecommunication Engineering). Since November 2014, she is a Ph.D. student in Science and Technology for Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering: her research topics focus on biofeedback methods for the analysis of biomedical signals and images for monitoring and follow up. In particular, she studies the heartbeat during a rehabilitation program for patients with cognitive problems that lead to motor disabilities of the upper limb. She is also IEEE Student Member associated to IEEE Signal Processing Society.
