David, Bryan, Brendan and Anna testing the VocalSearch music search engine
Welcome to the Interactive Audio Lab, run by Bryan Pardo. Our research group is interested in machine perception of sound and audio. We apply machine learning, probabilistic natural language processing, and database search techniques to auditory user interfaces for human-computer interaction, with an emphasis on music and speech prosody. Feel free to take a look at all our current research, our publications and our lab members.
Job Opportunities
We are always on the lookout for new talent. If you are currently considering graduate school, and you're interested in creating systems that understand music, speech prosody, or sound processing in general, take a look at some of our research, or browse through the lab publications. If this stuff looks interesting, contact Professor Bryan Pardo. *NOTE* The lab also employs a number of Northwestern undergraduates in the work-study program. Such students are also encouraged to contact Professor Pardo about job opportunities.
