Biography

Amir Asif (Senior Member, IEEE) received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical and computer engineering from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), Pittsburgh, PA, USA, in 1993 and 1996, respectively.
He is currently a Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, York University, Toronto, ON, Canada. He works in the area of statistical signal processing and communications. His current projects include distributed agent networks (autonomy and consensus in complex and contested environments), medical imaging (ultrasound elastography and brain–computer interfaces), data science (graph signal processing in social networks), and health management of mission-critical systems.
Dr. Asif is also a member of the Professional Engineering Society of Ontario. He has organized a number of IEEE Conferences on Signal Processing Theory and Applications. He received several Distinguished Awards, including the York University Faculty of Graduate Studies Teaching Award in 2008; the York President’s University-Wide Teaching Award (Full-Time Senior Faculty Category) in 2008; and the Science and Engineering Teaching Excellence Award (Senior Faculty Category) from York’s Faculty of Science and Engineering in 2006 and 2004, respectively. He sits on several boards of directors, including Research Canada and Making the Shift Inc., and has served as the Chair of the Research Committee of Engineering Deans Canada. He has served on the editorial boards of numerous journals and international conferences, including an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing from 2014 to 2018 and the IEEE Signal Processing Letters from 2002 to 2006 and from 2009 to 2013.
