(1) Maintaining and developing software for measurement of middle ear
acoustic responses. Participating in a technology transfer project
funded by US National Institutes of Health (NIH). Project completed Dec. 2007. Manuscripts are being prepared. Mentor: Dr. Douglas Keefe.
(2) Computer modeling of cochlea electromechanics: Wave propagation and amplification. Project funded by
NIH currently. Mentor: Dr. Stephen Neely. |
2002-2005 |
Dissertation: Audio Watermarking
through Parametric Signal Representations.
Invented, implemented, and evaluated an audio watermarking scheme
based on sine + noise signal decomposition. The scheme demonstrates
robust and transparent data hiding at about 5-10 bits per second.
It also shows potential in meta data hiding for the purpose of sound
source segregation, a novel application previously unexplored in
the watermarking literature.
Advisors: Dr. Julius Smith and Dr. Marina Bosi. |
2001 |
Summer Internship, AT&T Research
Labs, Middletown, New Jersey.
Developed signal processing algorithms for acoustic echo cancellation. Mentors: Dr. Larry Jackel and Dr. Richard Howard. |
2000 |
Summer Internship, VerbalTek Inc.,
San Jose, CA.
Conducted research in signal classification for speech recognition
in noisy environment.
Mentor: Dr. Yoon Kim. |
