Plenary Speaker
Darko Zibar is currently Professor at the Department of Electrical and Photonics Engineering, Technical University of Denmark and the group leader of Machine Learning in Photonics Systems (MLiPS) group. He received M.Sc. degree in telecommunication and the Ph.D. degree in optical communications from the Technical University of Denmark, in 2004 and 2007, respectively. He has been a Visiting Professor at Politecnico di Torino, Friedreich Alexander University of Erlangen, University of California Santa Barbara and University of Colorado, Boulder. His research efforts are currently focused on the application of digital signal processing and machine learning techniques to advance classical and quantum optical communication and measurement systems. Some of his major scientific contributions include: record capacity hybrid optical-wireless link (2011), record sensitive optical phase noise measurement technique that approaches the quantum limit (2021) and record-bandwidth (S+C+L band) programmable gain Raman amplifier (2019). He is the recipient of Young Researcher Award by University of Erlangen-Nurnberg (2016), European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator Grant (2017), Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Bessel Research Award, (2021), and Villum Investigator Award (2023). Finally, he was a part of the team that won the HORIZON 2020 prize for breaking the optical transmission barriers (2016).

Keynote Speaker
Etienne Perret received the Eng. Dipl. degree in electrical engineering from the ENSEEIHT, Toulouse, France, in 2002, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the Toulouse Institute of Technology, Toulouse, in 2002 and 2005, respectively. He was appointed Associate Professor in 2006 and Full Professor in 2022 in electrical engineering at Univ. Grenoble Alpes, Grenoble INP, France. He has authored or co-authored over 250 technical conference papers, letters, journal papers, books, and book chapters. His works have generated more than 5700 citations. His current research interests include wireless communication systems based on backscatter modulation, or the backscattering of EM waves, especially in the fields of RFID and chipless RFID for identification and sensing. His research also includes electromagnetic modeling of passive devices for millimeter- and submillimeter-wave applications, along with advanced computer-aided design techniques based on an automated co-design synthesis computational approach. He has received several awards, including the MIT Technology Review’s French Innovator’s under 35 in 2013, the French Innovative Techniques for the Environment Award in 2013, the SEE/IEEE Leon Brillouin Award for his outstanding achievement in the identification of an object in an unknown environment using a chipless label or tag in 2016, the IEEE MTT-S 2019 Outstanding Young Engineer Award, the Prix Espoir IMT – Académie des sciences in 2020, and the Grand Prix de l’Electronique Général Ferrié in 2021. Etienne Perret was awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant in 2017 (project ScattererID) and an ERC POC in 2024 (RFmatCarac).
