Signal Processing Magazine Best Paper Award

The Signal Processing Magazine Best Paper Award shall honor the author(s) of a paper of exceptional merit and broad interest on a subject related to the Society's technical scope and appearing in the Society's magazine. The prize shall consist of $500 per author (up to a maximum of $1500 per award) and a certificate. In the event that there are more than three authors, the maximum prize shall be divided equally among all authors and each shall receive a certificate. To be eligible for consideration, a paper must have appeared in IEEE Signal Processing Magazine in any issue predating the Spring Awards Board meeting (typically held in conjunction with ICASSP). Presentation shall be made either at the Society's Awards Ceremonies, normally held during ICASSP in the Spring or at ICIP in the Fall following selection of the winner. Judging shall be on the basis of quality and effectiveness in presenting subjects of broad interest to the Society's members. Current members of the Signal Processing Society's Awards Board are ineligible. Self-nominations are not accepted or considered. Nominations may arise from any individual or technical committee, including readers of the Magazine, or members of the editorial board of the Magazine or the Society's other publications, and shall be submitted directly to the Society's Awards Board. The Awards Board will insure that all nominations are vetted by the appropriate Society Technical Committee(s) prior to final nomination and subsequent balloting by the Awards Board.
