Curriculum Vitae
Pierangelo
Migliorati received the degree in
Electronic Engineering (cum laude) from Politecnico di
Milano in 1988, and the Master in Information Technology
from CEFRIEL-Politecnico di Milano Research Centre,
Milan, in 1989, respectively.
He joined CEFRIEL Research Center in 1990.
From 1990 to 1992 he was active in the area of digital image
processing and coding. From 1993 to 1995 he leaded
the Area of Digital Communication, focusing on nonlinear
channel modeling and equalization.
From 1995 he has
been Assistant and then Associate Professor at University of
Brescia.
His teaching activities focus mainly on Digital Signal
Processing and Digital Communications.
His main research interests cover the field of Digital
Signal Processing applications, with a specific expertise on
visual communications, and content-based analysis of
audio-visual information. He has published more than 90
papers on these topics. He has been an active reviewer of
several journal and conferences in this research filed.
He participated to several international research programmes
in audio-visual communications, funded by the European
Commission (ESPRIT project AVIR, IST project SPATION, IST
project SCHEMA, IST project DISCOVER, IST project RUSHES,
COST-292), the Italian National Council for Research (CNR),
the Italian Ministry of Education and Research (MIUR).
Teaching Activity 
My teaching activities
focus mainly on Multimedia Signal Processing and Digital
Communications.
Research Interests
I am interested in analysis, indexing and
transmission of audio and visual signals, with particular emphasis
to the techniques that uses multi-modal approaches.
Previously, I worked on channel modelling and equalization of
nonlinear channels, and motion compensated interpolation for low
bit-rate video coding.
