I have been highly research oriented. I have an MSEE. It has been a while since I have been actively practiced MSEE-ing, but it is coming back quickly. I am an average at MATLAB programmer, but it too, is coming back to me. I am very good at implementing a self-contained research papers or projects in which you know the details, the more the better, of what you want implemented.
I have studied and been involved in several areas of simulation. They are:
Digital Signal Processing
Digital Filters: Time/Space & Frequency Domains; Time Invariant and Adaptive
Digital Image Processing
Feature Extraction
Clustering Algorithms
Pattern Recognition
RF Simulation
Speech Processing
Optimization Theory
CAD 2D Geometric Programming
