  • Biography

    Perry was an intern at MERL in 2010 and joined as a researcher in 2016. In 2025, he was an Academic Visitor to the Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford, UK. He is currently interested in developing radio-frequency (RF) and multimodal models that can sense, perceive, understand, reason, and act from multi-sensor data. He received the IEEE Jack Neubauer Memorial Award in 2013 and was recognized as a Distinguished Speaker by the Society of Petrophysicists and Well Log Analysts (SPWLA) in 2017. He serves on the editorial boards of IEEE Signal Processing Letters and IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing and is a member of the IEEE Signal Processing Society Technical Committees on Signal Processing Theory and Methods (SPTM), Machine Learning for Signal Processing (MLSP), and Applied Signal Processing Systems (ASPS). He was a voting member of the IEEE 802.11 Standards Association and contributed to the 802.11bf Wi-Fi Sensing Task Group.

    •  AWARD    MERL’s Paper on Wi-Fi Sensing Earns Top 3% Paper Recognition at ICASSP 2023, Selected as a Best Student Paper Award Finalist
      Date: June 9, 2023
      Awarded to: Cristian J. Vaca-Rubio, Pu Wang, Toshiaki Koike-Akino, Ye Wang, Petros Boufounos and Petar Popovski
      MERL Contacts: Petros T. Boufounos; Toshiaki Koike-Akino; Pu (Perry) Wang; Ye Wang
      Research Areas: Artificial Intelligence, Communications, Computational Sensing, Dynamical Systems, Machine Learning, Signal Processing
      Brief
      • A MERL Paper on Wi-Fi sensing was recognized as a Top 3% Paper among all 2709 accepted papers at the 2023 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP 2023). Co-authored by Cristian Vaca-Rubio and Petar Popovski from Aalborg University, Denmark, and MERL researchers Pu Wang, Toshiaki Koike-Akino, Ye Wang, and Petros Boufounos, the paper "MmWave Wi-Fi Trajectory Estimation with Continous-Time Neural Dynamic Learning" was also a Best Student Paper Award finalist.

        Performed during Cristian’s stay at MERL first as a visiting Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow and then as a full-time intern in 2022, this work capitalizes on standards-compliant Wi-Fi signals to perform indoor localization and sensing. The paper uses a neural dynamic learning framework to address technical issues such as low sampling rate and irregular sampling intervals.

        ICASSP, a flagship conference of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS), was hosted on the Greek island of Rhodes from June 04 to June 10, 2023. ICASSP 2023 marked the largest ICASSP in history, boasting over 4000 participants and 6128 submitted papers, out of which 2709 were accepted.
