About Workshop

This workshop will include a discussion of the practical challenges faced in anti-personnel demining by The HALO Trust as well as talks on the latest developments in the underpinning mathematical theory of metal detection, numerical computations and sensor development from experts in the field. The discussions will also reflect on other important applications of metal detection including security screening, food safety, the search for items of archeological significance, non-destructive testing and in forensic science. In addition to a range of talks, there will also be opportunities for discussion.

The workshop will include talks by

  • Matthew Abercrombie, The HALO Trust
  • Dr. Davorin Ambrus (or colleague), Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing, University of Zagreb, Croatia
  • Dr. Micheal O’Toole, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The University of Manchester (TBC)
  • Prof. Tony Peyton, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The University of Manchester
  • Prof. Paul Ledger, School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences, University of Leicester

 

It is hoped that the workshop will be of interest to practitioners, industry and academic researchers.
