Sabine Van Huffel

Sabine J. A. Van Huffel (born September 26, 1958) is a Belgian computer scientist, applied mathematician, and electrical engineer, whose research concerns computational methods for medical diagnostics, and in particular methods based on total least squares.

Education and career
Van Huffel was born in Menen. She earned bachelor's and doctoral degrees from KU Leuven in 1981 and 1987,
with Joos Vandewalle as her doctoral advisor. Her dissertation, Analysis of the Total Least Squares Problem and its use in parameter estimation, concerned total least squares methods for parameter estimation.

She was a full professor at KU Leuven from 2002 to 2013. She is now a Distinguished Professor of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).

Book
With Vandewalle, Van Huffel is the author of the book The Total Least Squares Problem: Computational Aspects and Analysis (SIAM, 1991).

Recognition
Van Huffel is a fellow of the IEEE
and the recipient of an honorary doctorate from TU/e.
In 2016 she was elected as a fellow of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics "for esteemed accomplishments in bridging the gap between advanced numerical linear algebra techniques and biomedical signal processing".
