The Signal Processing research
group at the Universität Hamburg (http://uhh.de/inf-sp)
is hiring a research associate (PhD candidate) for a project on Phase-Aware
Speech Enhancement.
The focus of the group is on developing novel methods for processing
speech signals with applications in speech communication devices
such as hearing aids, and voice-controlled assistants. Typically,
the performance of these devices drops drastically when interfering
noise sources are present. To mend this undesired behavior, noise
reduction is applied. This is most commonly done in a spectral
domain, where speech is represented by means of its spectral
magnitude and its spectral phase. Until today, most systems process
only the spectral magnitude, as phase processing remains a
challenge. However, this restriction to magnitude processing also
limits the achievable performance of noise reduction systems. Thus,
the goal of the successful candidate is to improve noise reduction
systems by incorporating phase processing. For this, modern methods
from signal processing and machine learning are to be applied.
