The recent advances in spiking neural networks (SNNs), standing as the next generation of artificial neural networks have demonstrated clear computational benefits over traditional frame/image-based neural networks. Read more
Artificial intelligence in the form of deep learning, for instance using convolutional neural networks, has made a huge impact on medical image analysis. Read more
A Rydberg atom possesses a very high dipole moment with valence electrons that are very loosely bound (quasi-free), leading to a highly sensitive response to an external electromagnetic (EM) field. Read more
Laser Rangefinders are a key element of modern sensor systems and can range up to 20km with an accuracy of less than 1m. Thales UK produced the first in-service laser rangefinder in 1965, just a few years after the invention of the laser, and have been designing and manufacturing laser systems ever since. Read more
One of the requirements for a Geological Disposal Facility (GDF) for higher-activity radioactive waste is that it needs to contain radionuclides away from the surface environment whilst they are still harmful, which for some radionuclides can be up to tens of thousands of years. Read more
A unique opportunity to apply cutting edge marine sampling methods, deploying surface and submarine drones, to study fish in and around offshore windfarms. Read more
This PhD project aims to develop data-aided joint radar and communication systems techniques. The PhD will invest time in developing the most sophisticated data processing algorithms and their low-complexity alternatives that can be deployed in operations using battery-powered drones or sensor networks.

The Biomedical and Astronomical Signal Processing group (. BASP. ) at Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh (. HWU. ), headed by Professor Yves Wiaux, jointly with Edinburgh's prestigious Centre for Doctoral Training on Mathematical Modelling, Analysis and Computation. Read more
Microneedles are sub-millimetre needles that have been used in a range of healthcare applications including vaccine delivery, therapeutic delivery and for sensing. Read more
Within the Applied Optics and Photonics Group at Heriot-Watt there is ongoing research focused on the manufacture of functionally graded shape memory alloys, using Laser Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT), a flexible “direct write” process that allows materials to be controllably deposited at the microscale. Read more
Additive manufacturing (AM) provides the potential for game changing design advantages in part reduction, bespoke manufacturing and complex geometries. Read more
