Toulouse was founded 24 centuries ago, and became the berth of French aeronautics as early as the very beginning of the 20th century. Later, in the 60s it becomes the French center for Space activities. With its long tradition of hi-tech activities, the Midi-Pyrenees Region has now around 20,000 people working in research and development, almost equally shared among public research laboratories and the private sector. The Midi-Pyrenees is also the leading region in Europe for space telecommunication, meteorology and climatology, with Toulouse contributing a key production and development site to the Galileo program and its applications. Ten establishments are working directly in spacecraft construction, in addition to 7,500 employees working for over 200 establishments serving spacecraft construction, and another 15,000 employees working in private companies and public bodies. The ICASSP meeting is the world’s largest and most comprehensive technical conference focused on signal processing and its applications. The 31st version of our International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, for its first return to France since 1982 in Paris, will be held at the Centre des Congrès Pierre Baudis in downtown Toulouse, from May 14th to 19th, 2006. ICASSP 2006 will offer IEEE members several different passport registration packages, including conference registration and combinations of tutorials. The Conference received more than 3000 submissions, and the number of student papers has grown significantly, with an increase of more than 50% of those competing in the Student Contest, which reflects positively on the level of interest of young researchers in this domain. ICASSP’06 has devoted a special effort to motivate future researcher and engineering careers in the fields of Signal and Image Processing: as part of promoting sciencebased engineering education, we will present an adaptation of the “Infinity Project” to the French/European context. Toulouse and its surrounding region offer numerous attractions and contrasts to entertain its visitors. In addition to its rank as one of the major cities in the world for aircraft construction, it counts one of the highest percentages of students among its half million inhabitants. Attendees can visit the Airbus facility where the largest commercial jetliner in the world—the A380—is being assembled, and a number of hotspots for Space activities like French Space Agency (CNES), Alcatel Alenia Space, and others. It is also a place where the quality of life has been elevated to an art form over the centuries, due to complex interactions between the inhabitants and the place itself, making names like Cro-magnon, Lascaux or Tautavel famous. For those not interested in prehistory, 4 the region also offers middle age fortresses in Carcassonne and twentieth century paintings accessible in Albi, the hometown of painter Toulouse-Lautrec. For those amongst the attendees who are flesh and blood, France is world renown for its exquisite cuisine and fine wines, and the Sud-Ouest Region is particularly proud of its traditional specific gastronomy; Toulouse lies at the doorstep of some of the world’s most prestigious vineyards. The organizing committee has assembled a splendid social program to showcase the many attributes of Toulouse and its surrounding areas. Finally, I wish to recognize the superb work of the Organizing Committee, with special thanks to the two management companies Conference Management Services and Carte Blanche Organisation. We look forward to welcoming you to Toulouse, and offering you a memorable scientific and cultural experience! Francis Castanié ICASSP 2006 General Chair TECHNICAL PROGRAM OVERVIEW Welcome to Toulouse, for the 31st edition of ICASSP, the premier conference in Signal Processing. Our field is constantly evolving. The «Speech Processing Technical Committee» is now the «Speech and Spoken Language Processing» TC. The «Bio Imaging and Signal Processing» TC was reviewing papers for the first time for this ICASSP. One new TC will meet for the first time at ICASSP: the Information Forensics and Security TC. This year, excluding special sessions, we received a recordbreaking 3040 submissions. The submissions figures are ranked below according to the various Signal Processing Society Technical Committees: Speech and Spoken Language Processing ................(SLP).........668 Image & Multidimensional Signal Processing .........(IMDSP) ...539 Signal Processing Theory and Methods....................(SPTM) .....454 Signal Processing for Communications ....................(SPCOM) ..414 Sensor Array & Multi-channel Signal Processing ....(SAM) .......207 Machine Learning for Signal Processing..................(MLSP) .....201 Audio & Electroacoustics .........................................(AE) ..........179 Bio Imaging and signal processing ...........................(BIO).........103 Design & Implementation of SP Systems.................(DISPS).......99 Multimedia Signal Processing ..................................(MSP)..........91 Industry Technology Track.......................................(ITT)............74 Signal Processing Education.....................................(SPED) ........11 Compared with 2005, three of these TC’s show an increase in the number of submissions by more than 20% : SPTM, DISPS, and ITT. The SLP TC (the largest one in terms of submissions) also 5 had an increase above the global increase percentage. The AE TC also has an above average increase in the number of submissions. In order to ensure high conference quality, the acceptance rate for submitted papers was set to 48 %. This is slightly lower than last year and continues the trend observed in the last several years. This year, out of 3040 submissions, 1460 were accepted. The challenging task of reviewing so many papers was efficiently handled by the TC’s under the supervision of Mazin Gilbert, Antonio Ortega and Sheila Hemami, G. Tong Zhou and Petar M. Djuric, Ananthram Swami and Nicholas Sidiropoulos, Alex Gershman, Tulay Adali and Jan Larsen, Michael Goodwin, Michael Unser, Chaitali Chakrabarti and Wayne Burleson, Yu Hen Hu, Eli Saber, and Huseyin Abut. All TC chairs and members worked very hard, with the help of external reviewers, to provide accurate and timely evaluations of the submissions. For most papers, they managed to obtain three reviews. Most of the success of this conference should be credited to them. They also selected the student contest finalists, under the coordination of Inbar Fijalkow and Philippe Salembier. Awards will be decided by the TC’s after the presentations given at ICASSP, thus providing a well-deserved recognition to very bright young researchers. The special sessions were handled by Josiane Zerubia and Patrick Flandrin, who selected 13 sessions out of the 18 that were submitted. The technical committees were also involved in the selection process. Josiane and Patrick did an excellent job of coordinating the selection of leading edge topics of interest to the signal processing community. Altogether, these sessions constitute a very good sample of emerging areas which nicely complement the regular sessions. The first slot of each session will feature an overview of the topic. All these tasks were facilitated by the excellent infrastructure and support provided by Conference Management Services, and especially Lance Cotton and Billene Mercer. Their efficient work allowed the review process to run painlessly, and the technical program to be put together very smoothly. This year, the technical program is organized into 6 parallel oral sessions, plus 8 parallel poster sessions. The choice between acceptance as a poster or an oral presentation was made by the TC chairs based on subject grouping, and not on paper quality. The overview of the technical program would not be complete without a word about the plenary speaker program, put together by Benoit Macq and Yves Tourneret. Four plenary talks are planned on «Cooperative Wireless Communication» by David Tse, «Discreet Signaling: An Information Theoretic Perspective» by Pierre Moulin, «Signal Processing Challenges in Automotive Engineering» by Mats Viberg, and «On Board Data Processing in Space Missions» by Jacques-Emile Blamont. Undoubtedly, these 6 talks will maintain the tradition of very high quality overviews of key issues in Signal Processing established over the years. Tutorials, given this year on Sunday afternoon and Monday, before the conference, are attracting more and more attendees each year. The program was selected by Phil Regalia and Dirk Slock from proposals received after a call during the summer, and covers a nice mixture of presentations on new, open subjects, and of in depth presentations of new results. Finally, everybody knows that conferences are also regular opportunities to exchange point of views and informations with good friends. Two such opportunities will be offered by interactive panel sessions on «Women in SP», and «Patentability of algorithms and software for signal processing». In addition to the regular ICASSP conference, and in order to promote Signal Processing and scientific work at early levels of education, Inbar Fijalkow has organized a presentation of the “infinity project” on Monday 15th. Target audience is made of professors of College and of “preparatory schools” (special training to the best students to enter the top schools of engineering in France), as well as people involved in the definition of programs (inspecteurs d’académie). Even if this event is not full part of the conference, we think that such events truly deserve support by the Signal Processing community (Presentation will be in English, and the debate in French). We look forward to working with you all in a friendly atmosphere, from Sunday, 14th to Friday 19th of May, 2006. See you in Toulouse !

Much of the excitement in wireless communication research in the past two decades stems from the discovery that multiple antennas at the transmitter and/or the receiver can significantly increase the amount of these resources and boost capacity and reliability. For devices which have severe space or complexity limitation, however, it may not be feasible to co-locate too many antenna elements. Cooperative communication is a recently emerged subject which explores how the multiple antenna gain can be emulated by simple radios relaying information for each other. The key challenge is the distrubuted nature of the processing. We will discuss information theoretic limits on how much of the three resources cooperating radios can capture in a distributed way, both at a microscopic link level and at a macroscopic network level. We will also give examples of simple coding and signal processing schemes which approach those performance limits.

Today, ad hoc signaling methods are used in applications as varied as digital rights management for multimedia, content identification, authentication, steganography, transaction tracking, and networking. This talk will overview some of these applications as well as an information-theoretic framework for designing provably good signaling schemes. Key ingredients of this framework include models for the signals being communicated and the degradations, jammers and eavesdroppers that may be encountered during transmission. Speaker Biography Pierre Moulin received his D.Sc. from Washington University in St. Louis in 1990.

Signal Processing Challenges in Automotive Engineering Date: Thursday, May 18, 08:30 - 09:30 Location: Auditorium St Exupery Mats Viberg, Chalmers University of Technology Abstract Engine designers are facing increased challenges due to demands for improved efficiency and reduced emission levels. Legislations and costumers environmental awareness work together to drive research and development. In a modern car, “Electronics” represents approximately 1/3 of the value, and the figure is steadily increasing. A great part of this will be due to active safety systems, using e.g. radar and visual sensing. The objective of this talk is to show how signal processing can be used to address critical issues in the diagnosis of combustion engines. Together with novel control strategies, this is an enabling technology for future combustion processes with significantly reduced emissions and higher efficiency. We believe that the signal processing community should play an active role in research and development in this area, which is traditionally populated by the mechanical engineering and control societies. With the perhaps sole exception of air-fuel ratio control (via the lambda-sond), today’s engines are essentially operating in open loop. The various actuators, such as injection and valve timing, spark timing etc., are chosen according to a look-up table. For every driving condition (e.g. engine speed and load), the optimal control is determined by a time-consuming experimental procedure. This is called engine calibration. In modern engines, the number of vaiables to calibrate approaches 10, implying that the cost for engine calibration becomes unacceptably high. Add to this the fact that components age, so that the control quickly becomes suboptimal. An alternative, or at least a complement, to a calibration table is closed-loop control. This requires that a suitable measure of engine performance can be defined, and estimated using some sensor measurement. In fact, it is generally believed that advanced engine concepts, such as Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI), cannot be realized without closedloop control. 24 A number of sensors have been proposed to gain information regarding the combustion process. The most direct approach is a pressure sensor in each cylinder. Unfortunately, in-cylinder pressure measurement remains unreliable and expensive, mostly due to the hostile environment. Instead, other sensors must be used to estimate the sought information. The situation is indeed at the heart of signal processing: use clever signal processing to measure the unmeasurable! Among the available sensors, we mention crank-angle rotation, structure borne sound, ion current and crankangle resolved torque. Various forms of in-direct pressure sensors have also been proposed. A survey of sensors will be given, with respect to their potential for engine diagnosis. Examples of combustion information of interest include misfire (a cylinder did not burn), combustion phasing and knocking. The latter refers to a spontaneous ignition, which can seriously damage the engine. We will also present a strategy for closed-loop control of combustion phasing. This is central to engine efficiency; the energy from the combustion must be released when the lever is optimally placed, so that maximum torque is delivered to the crankshaft. Results from real-time control of a Volvo V70 engine will be presented. The engine is equipped with a torque sensor, mounted at the crankshaft near the flywheel. The phasing measure is based on a new concept, termed torque ratio. To determine the individual contributions of the various cylinders to the torque ratio is a challenging signal separation as well as inverse filtering problem. This is due to torsional vibrations, which makes the individual contributions overlap significantly in time. We will also discuss other diagnostic information of interest, including reconstructing the entire pressure signal in each cylinder. Finally, the possibilities to predict emissions, so called “virtual sensing” will be discussed. Speaker Biography Mats Viberg received the PhD degree in Automatic Control from Linköping University, Sweden in 1989. During 1989-1992 he was an Assistant Professor in Linköping University and 19921993 he held visiting Scholarships at the Information Systems Laboratory, Stanford University, and the Department of ECE, Brigham Young University, USA.

The steady performance improvements of the data processing algorithms and the availability, for spaceborne applications, of highly integrated ASIC circuits allow the implementation of sophisticated real-time schemes. This talk will outline some of the main on-board data processings in CNES missions with emphasis on architectures, and present the future prospects. Speaker Biography Jacques Blamont received the D.SC. from Paris University (1956) in Physics. From 1957 to 1996, he was Profesor (now emeritus) at University of Paris VI. After having been in charge of the first French sounding rockets, he became scientific and technical director of CNES, where he serves still as adviser to the President. He has participated to practically all planetary missions (both American and soviet) as a Prime Investigator for various experiments, culminating with the development during the 80’s and early 90’s of image compression devices, whose first flew in 1994 on the DOD Clementine mission.
