POST-DOCTORAL POSITION #1 Center for Robust Speech Systems: Robust Speech Technologies Lab
Developing robust speech and language technologies (SLT) for naturalistic audio is the most challenging topic in the broader class of machine learning problems. CRSS-RSTL stands at the forefront of this initiative by making available the largest (150,000 hours) publicly available naturalistic corpus in the world. The FEARLESS STEPS corpus is the collection of multi-speaker time synchronized multi-channel audio from all of NASA’s 12 Apollo Manned Missions. Deployment of such ambitious corpora requires development of state-of-the-art support infrastructure using multiple technologies working synchronously to provide meaningful information to researchers from the science, technology, historical archives, and educational communities. To this end, we are seeking a post-doctoral researcher in the area of speech and language processing and machine learning. The researcher will collaboratively aid in the development of speech, natural language, and spoken dialog systems for noisy multi-channel audio streams. Overseeing digitization of analog tapes, community outreach and engagement, and assisting in cutting edge SLT research are also important tasks for the project. Those interested should send an email with their resume and areas of interest to John.Hansen@utdallas.edu.

POST-DOCTORAL POSITION #2 Center for Robust Speech Systems: Cochlear Implant Processing Lab
Cochlear implants are one of the most successful solutions of replacing hearing sensation via an electronic device. However, the search for better sound coding and electrical stimulation strategies could be significantly accelerated by developing a flexible, powerful, portable speech processor for cochlear implants compatible with current smartphones/tablets. We are developing CCi-MOBILE, the next generation of such a research platform, one that will be more flexible and computationally powerful than clinical research devices that will enable implementation and long-term evaluation of advanced signal processing algorithms in naturalistic and diverse acoustic environments. To this end, we are seeking a post-doctoral researcher in the area of cochlear implant signal processing and embedded hardware/systems design. The researcher will collaboratively aid in the development of an embedded (FPGA-based) hardware (PCBs) for speech processing applications. Firmware development in Verilog and Java (Android) for DSP algorithms implementation is also an important task for the project. Those interested should send an email with their resume and areas of interest to John.Hansen@utdallas.edu.
