The Group of Multimedia Processing (GPM) is part of the Department of Signal Theory and Communications, University Carlos III of Madrid.
Its research interests are in the general area of speech, audio, image and video processing, especially on computer vision, speech recognition, and last generation video coding. Besides applied research, the group also addresses more fundamental lines such as those devoted to audio-visual salience or emergent models of perception. Among the application sectors, the following deserve to be mentioned: medical image-based computer diagnosis systems, event and anomaly detection systems for security, and spoken man-machine interfaces for adverse conditions.
