An excerpt from the article “10 Best Places for Tech Jobs” from U.S.News & World Report

Phoenix

“According to one recent count, Phoenix has 4,200 high-tech companies and upwards of 81,000 high-tech jobs. Microsoft, Oracle, and Intel are among the major tech corporations with a presence in the area, but Phoenix boasts plenty of smaller, but still familiar, employers, such as domain registrar GoDaddy. The city ranks high in overall tech job openings and in the ratios of job openings to employment for several IT jobs. Credit goes, in part, to Arizona State University, which nurtures advances at its College of Technology and Innovation and Advanced Technology Innovation Center.”

Research images make the cover of the latest IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing

Posted: 06/23/2009

IEEE_June_cover_web.png Three key images from the paper "Interactive Hyperspectral Image Visualization Using Convex Optimization" made the cover of IEEE's Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, a publication of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society. The research paper, written by Ming Cui, Anshuman Razdan, Jiuxiang Hu, and Peter Wonka, was released in the June 2009 Volume 47 issue.

The cover shows an automatic pseudocolored visualization of an AVIRIS hyperspectral image data set. Visualizations are created using an automatic color assign scheme based on convex optimization (top left). Using the same method we can highlight a region with similar spectral signatures (top right). The algorithm is compared to other visualization algorithms such as ISOMAP visualization (bottom).
For more information, see the publication.
