Research

Operational Research

Following the research conducted during my PhD, I have now joined Jeff Griffiths and Janet Williams in the Operational Research group at the School of Mathematics. The main objective of this role is to aid NHS staff in the evaluation and optimisation of hospital services. This will include the refinement of discrete event simulation models.

Sonar Signal Processing

On completing my BSc at Cardiff University, I stayed to study towards a PhD, sponsored by the EPSRC and Thales Underwater Systems. Under the project title “Environmentally Adaptive Noise Estimation for Active Sonar” I turned my abilities to the analysis of sonar noise. Ultimately, the objective of this work was to improve sonar system detection performance through the accurate modelling of noise statistics and advanced techniques to make efficient use of available data.

Biography

Robert Bareš received the B.Sc. (first class honors) degree in computer science with computer vision and computer graphics from Cardiff University in 2007. He is currently editing his Ph.D. thesis, titled "Environmentally Adaptive Noise Estimation for Active Sonar", which was funded by the EPSRC and Thales Underwater Systems, and supervised by Dafydd Evans.

During 2006, he was a Performance and Capacity Analyst at Siemens, Coventry, U.K.
