Hearing Seminar Biography:
Jort Gemmeke is a research scientist at Google. Prior to this, he worked as algorithm developer at Audience, Mountain View. In 2011, he received the Ph.D degree from the University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands, on the subject of noise robust ASR using missing data techniques. From 2011 to 2014, he worked as a postdoc at KU Leuven, Belgium, leading a project to develop self-taught vocal interfaces for dysarthric speakers. He is known for pioneering the field of exemplar-based noise robust ASR employing sparse non-negative matrix factorization, for which he was awarded the 2014 IEEE young author best paper award. His research interests are acoustic event detection, automatic speech recognition and source separation.
