Two fully funded PhD stipends in network audio signal processing is
available at Aalborg University, Denmark.
At the Technical Faculty of IT and Design, Department of Electronic
Systems, two fully funded Marie Skłodowska-Curie PhD stipends in Network
Audio Signal Processing are available within the general study programme
Electrical and Electronic Engineering and under the supervision of Prof.
Jan Østergaard. The stipends are open for appointment from February 1,
2021, or soon as possible thereafter.
The PhD students employed at AAU will be fully embedded in the SOUNDS
research and training network, and will carry out theoretical and
applied research in the interdisciplinary fields of signal processing,
audio processing, communication networks and machine learning. The
topics of the positions are related to the following fields:
1) Learning, compressing, and distributing acoustic changes in networked
environments.
2) Real-time distributed speech compression and enhancement in wireless
hearing aids.
THE "SOUNDS" PROJECT
The SOUNDS European Training Network (ETN) revolves around a new and
promising paradigm coined as Service- Oriented, Ubiquitous,
Network-Driven Sound. Inspired by the ubiquity of mobile and wearable
devices capable of capturing, processing, and reproducing sound, the
SOUNDS ETN aims to bring audio technology to a new level by exploiting
network-enabled cooperation between devices. We envision the next
generation of audio devices to be capable of providing enhanced hearing
assistance, creating immersive audio experience, enabling advanced voice
control and much more, by seamlessly exchanging signals and parameter
settings, and spatially analyzing and reproducing sound jointly with
other nearby audio devices and infrastructure. Moreover, such
functionality should be self-organizing, flexible, and scalable,
requiring minimal user interaction for adapting to changes in the
environment or network. It is anticipated that this paradigm will
eventually result in an entirely new way of designing and using audio
technology, by considering audio as a service enabled through shared
infrastructure, rather than as a device-specific functionality limited
by the capabilities and constraints of a single user device.
To attain this paradigm shift in audio technology not only requires
additional research but also calls for a new generation of qualified
researchers with a transdisciplinary and international scientific
profile, strong collaborative research and research management skills,
and the intersectoral expertise needed to carry research results from
academia to industry. It is believed that the SOUNDS ETN will offer the
best possible framework for achieving these goals, by organizing
advanced interdisciplinary research training, developing solid
transferable skills, and providing intersectoral and international
experience in a network of qualified and complementary industrial and
academic institutions.
The SOUNDS ETN strongly values research integrity, actively supports
open access and reproducible research, and strives for diversity and
gender balance in its entire research and training program. The SOUNDS
ETN adheres to The European Charter for Researchers and The Code of
Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.
Profile of the candidate:
The candidate has a Master degree in information theory, statistical
signal processing, estimation theory, adaptive signal processing, or
audio processing, and have a solid background in mathematics.
Excellent proficiency in the English language is required, as well as
good communication skills, both oral and written.
Candidates must satisfy the eligibility conditions for MSCA Early Stage
Researchers, i.e., they must have obtained their Master degree in the
past 4 years and must not have resided or carried out their main
activity (work, studies, etc.) in Denmark for more than 12 months in the
past 3 years
PhD stipends are allocated to individuals who hold a Master's degree.
PhD stipends are normally for a period of 3 years. It is a prerequisite
for allocation of the stipend that the candidate will be enrolled as a
PhD student at the Technical Doctoral School of IT and Design in
accordance with the regulations of Ministerial Order No. 1039 of August
27, 2013 on the PhD Programme at the Universities and Certain Higher
Artistic Educational Institutions. According to the Ministerial Order,
the progress of the PhD student shall be assessed every six months. It
is a prerequisite for continuation of salary payment that the previous
progress is approved at the time of the evaluation.
