Asoke K. Nandi

Asoke Kumar Nandi FREng FIEEE (born 1954) is an Indian born British scientist, engineer, and academic specializing in signal processing and machine learning. He is currently a Professor in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Brunel University of London.

Nandi obtained his PhD in physics from Trinity College, University of Cambridge, in 1979. Following this, he worked as a research fellow in particle physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory from 1979 to 1984. During his tenure as a member of the UA1 collaboration at CERN, his team contributed to the discovery of the W⁺, W⁻, and Z⁰ bosons, fundamental particles associated with the electroweak force. This work was later recognized with the 1984 Nobel Prize in Physics, awarded to Carlo Rubbia and Simon van der Meer.

In 1984, Nandi was awarded a five-year Advanced Fellowship by the Science and Engineering Research Council (SERC), initially based at CERN and later at the University of Oxford. He transitioned to signal processing research in 1987, joining Imperial College London as the Solartron Lecturer in Signal Processing.

In 1991, he joined the University of Strathclyde as a Senior Lecturer, where he was later promoted to Reader in 1995 and Professor in 1998. In 1999, he was appointed to the David Jardine Chair of Signal Processing at the University of Liverpool, where he founded the Signal Processing and Communications Research Group. He held this position until 2013.

Between 2010 and 2014, he was a Finland Distinguished Professor at the University of Jyväskylä. In 2013, he joined Brunel University London as a Professor of Signal Processing and Machine Learning. From 2013 to 2016, he served as Head of the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering.^[1]
