Matthew Goodheart: New Works for Transducer-Actuated Instruments

Date: 
Thu, 10/26/2023 - 7:30pm - 9:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Stage / CCRMA LIVE
Event Type: 
Concert
With his work described as “An exacting and fascinating meeting of art, music and science” (Jazzwise) and “extraordinary listening experiences” (Westdeutsch Zeitung), composer, performer, and sound installation artist Matthew Goodheart interleaves live performance and immersive sound environments in a hybrid world of composition, improvisation, interactive electronics, and spatial sound installation. Utilizing a technique known as “reembodied sound,” in which instruments are actuated via tactile transducers so that they appear to sound autonomously, he investigates the interrelationship between acoustics, space, sound production, and technology. In this concert, he will present a set of recent solo works combining transducer-actuated metal percussion and piano in an evolving series of eclectic and ethereal soundscapes.

Robotic Hearing Systems for Autonomous Vehicles

Date: 
Fri, 10/27/2023 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
Xuan Zhong will discuss the issues in building Robotic Hearing Systems for Autonomous Vehicles.

Title: Building Ears for Robots: Machine Hearing in the Age of Autonomy

Abstract:
What does sounds mean to robots? How do we build ears for them? The field of robot hearing is increasingly important due to the deployment of service robots that can operate in uncertain environments. In this seminar, we first discuss the hardware design considerations of robot hearing systems in the context of robotaxi. Then a preliminary framework for robot hearing software is introduced based on the theory of probabilistic robotics.

Josh McDermott (MIT) on New Models of Human Hearing via Machine Learning

Date: 
Thu, 10/12/2023 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
How might we bring modern machine learning ideas to the auditory world? Our auditory system is wonderfully rich, and there are innumerable ways that it can go wrong. There are many models that attempt to mimic the structure of the auditory system, with various levels of fidelity.

But perhaps we can do better by ignoring the details and modeling the auditory system as a black box, via a deep neural network (DNN). We can train the model using data from psychoacoustic tests. Ignoring details like the basilar membrane transmission line, and inner and outer hair cells, and all sorts of brain structures, can a DNN provide a good enough model? Can we use these models to design auditory prosthetics?

Laura Gwilliams on Computational architecture of speech comprehension

Date: 
Fri, 10/06/2023 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
How do our brains translate sound into language and semantic concepts? How and where do the different types of linguistic concepts (phonetics, words, etc) show up in the brain. And when? What tools can we use to decipher these parts of the brain?

I'm really happy to welcome Prof. Laura Gwilliams to Stanford and the Hearing Seminar.
