I received a travel grant to attend the 31st European Signal Processing Conference 2023 (EUSICPO) held in Helsinki, Finland. Thanks to the generous support by emergenCITY, I had an enriching experience and gained a profound insight into the world of academic exchange and collaboration.

In addition to attending the exciting talks from the signal processing community, I presented my paper entitled “Accelerated Sample Accurate R-Peak Detectors Based on Visibility Graphs”, in which novel algorithms for heartbeat detection in the electrocardiogram are proposed. The developed methods rely on the visibility graph transformation and allow for a fast and sample-precise heartbeat detection, which is required for assessing cardiovascular health and diseases.
