On 7 January 2025, around 30 participants joined the CityUHK-EE x MathWorks Joint Lab event titled "Artificial Intelligence for Signal Processing Applications Seminar” by Yueyi Xu and Nikita Pinto.

The seminar explored the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into various workflows, emphasizing data preparation, modeling, system design, and deployment. Attendees gained valuable insights into how MATLAB facilitates AI implementation through interactive apps that generate code. The speakers demonstrated how AI can enhance signal processing systems for a range of signals, including audio, biomedical, radar, and wireless. The event was a great success, offering participnts practical knowledge and techniques to leverage AI in their signal processing endeavors.

Ir Prof. Alan Lam, EE Adjunct Professor, is the founder of Sengital Limited, where he has successfully led the company to win numerous technology awards and secured multiple patents. During the EE seminar titled “From Research to Reality – The Journey of a Successful Tech Entrepreneur,” held on November 5, 2024, Prof. Lam shared his personal journey from university research to establishing several highly successful technology companies.

In the seminar, Prof. Lam highlighted the key insights and challenges he faced while transforming academic research into market-ready products. He emphasized the importance of innovation, perseverance, and strategic planning in entrepreneurship, and discussed how to effectively navigate the transition from academia to the commercial sector.
