Ver. 2014-03-03 Ph.D. project offer Title Development of speech coding algorithms inspired by the central auditory system Description The central auditory system has many characteristics that could foster the development of improved speech coders. The objective of this research project is to develop speech coding algorithms that are inspired by the central auditory system. This work will make use of the current knowledge in neural signal processing by the central auditory system as well as of several metrics developed for the objective evaluation of speech processing algorithms. It will allow the study of new paradigms that will lead to the development of novel speech coding algorithms. The research will be conducted jointly in the Speech and Audio Processing Laboratory and the Computational Neuroscience and Intelligent Signal Processing Research Group at the Université de Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, Canada. A financial support is expected. Requirements Excellent academic record. Strong background in speech processing. Excellent ability to communicate in English. Knowledge of French is considered an advantage. Interest in neuroscience. The Université de Sherbrooke is a French-speaking institution located in the province of Quebec, Canada, and the heart of an international research pole. It is host to more than 40 000 students from over 120 different countries worldwide. (Source: UdeS)
