Arlene John is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Twente, the Netherlands.She received the Bachelor of Technology degree in electrical and electronics engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Calicut, India, in 2017 and the Ph.D. degree in electrical and electronic engineering from University College Dublin, Ireland, in 2022. From March-June, 2019, she was a Senior Visiting Researcher with the Beijing University of Technology, Beijing, China and she worked as a Machine Learning Mathematics Engineer at ASML Netherlands B.V. from 2022-2023.Her research focuses on the development of explainable AI technique for personalized predictions and decision-support for ehealth technology.

Barry Cardiff graduated with a B.Eng from the Electronic Engineering department in UCD in 1992 and an M.Eng.Sc (by research) thereafter. In 2011 obtained a PhD, as a mature student in the field of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for wireless and optical communications. Worked for as a design Engineer for Nokia Mobile Phone (UK) Ltd from 1993 to 2001 working on some of world's more advanced and innovative products culminating in the role of Chief Engineer and as a contributor to the 3GPP standardization process. Moved to Ireland in 2001 to work as a Systems Architect in Silicon & Software Systems (S3 group) working mainly on embedded hardware / software development projects with applications ranging from wireless communications to hearing aids. Continued to work for S3 group for several years after a break between 2007-2011 to obtain a PhD from UCD under Prof. Tony Fagan with a thesis entitled "Detection Techniques in Vector Systems in Communications". In September 2013 joined the academic staff in UCD to complement the teaching staff both in Dublin and in a joint collaboration in Beijing (BDIC). Research interests are in the area of DSP applications mainly in communication systems both in the theoretical analysis and practical advancement of such systems. The area of power / complexity reduction techniques in circuit design, i.e. DSP algorithms for digitally assisted analog circuits, is also of current interest.
