The Computational Audition Group at the Department of Medical Physics and

Acoustics, University of Oldenburg, Germany, seeks a highly motivated

PhD student

(75 % of full time, TV-L E13, 3 years, with possibility of extension)

in the field of Deep Learning for Signal Processing

Our group investigates audio signal recognition with multi-channel microphone

arrays, identifying important sound sources in real-world acoustic scenes, and

performing source separation to enhance e.g. an attended speech signal.

Applicants for the position must hold an academic university degree (master or

equivalent) in physics, engineering, computer science or a related discipline

and should have knowledge in at least one of the following fields:

- machine learning,

- speech recognition,

- acoustic event detection,

- speech and audio processing.

Excellent knowledge of scientific programming languages such as Python or

MATLAB, as well as excellent English language skills are required.

The position is funded by the newly established DFG collaborative research

centre CRC 1330 "Hearing Acoustics", which aims at improving human communication

in real-world acoustic scenes and is a long-term collaboration of researchers

from Oldenburg, Aachen and Munich. For more information about the CRC see

https://www.uni-oldenburg.de/sfb1330.

The Computational Audition Group is part of the Department of Medical Physics

and Acoustics at University of Oldenburg. We offer an international scientific

environment and world-class research facilities. For more information about the

group and the department see https://uol.de/computational-audition/ and
