:: Audio Signal Processing

Current research efforts are aimed at developing intelligent signal processing methods for sound design and synthesis of musical instruments and DSP-based, perceptual methods for audio quality assessment.

Main research topics

• Modeling of musical instruments
• Artificial intelligence based approach to sound synthesis parameter optimisation
• Evaluation and Prediction of Perceived Audio Quality 
• DSP models of human perception
• Real-time audio signal processing
• Adaptive search / optimisation in signal processing design
