Andriy Temko (M’05–SM’12) received the Engineering degree in Informatics in 2002 from Dniepropetrovsk National University, Dniepropetrovsk, Ukraine and the PhD degree in Telecommunication in 2008 from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain. During 2006-2007 he was a task leader in detection and classification of acoustic events within the EU-funded international evaluation campaigns on detection of events, activities, and their relationships (CLEAR 2006/CLEAR 2007). Since late 2008 he has been with the Irish Centre for Fetal and Neonatal Translational Research University College Cork, Ireland, working on algorithms for detection brain injuries in the newborn. He is the author of more than 70 peer-reviewed publications and 2 patents. He developed and patented a novel cutting-edge neonatal seizure detection system which is currently undergoing European multi-center clinical trial towards its regulatory approval and clinical adoption. His research interests include acoustic and physiological signal processing, clinical decision support tools, and applications of machine learning for signal processing.
