[AUDITORY] Summer School on Machine Learning & Numerics for Acoustics



Dear List,

we are happy to announce the Summer School on Machine Learning & Numerics for Acoustics will take place from 19.09.2024 – 20.09.2024 at the University of Oldenburg, Germany (for details, see www.hearing-acoustics.de).

The Summer School provides a great opportunity for Master and PhD students to broaden their understanding in machine learning and numerical methods relevant in cutting-edge hearing research. It will give you insights into the current research addressed in the collaborative research centre (CRC) Hearing acoustics (coordinator: Prof. Dr. Volker Hohmann) at the University of Oldenburg - School of Medicine and Health sciences – Dept. of Medical Physics and Acoustics (see www.hearing-acoustics.de) dedicated to advance our understanding of auditory perception in complex acoustic environments (CAEs) and to improve acoustic communication in such difficult environments.

The PIs of the CRC areas Algorithms and Applications will give lecture talks on following topics:

  • Deep Learning Architectures for Speech Processing (Bernd Meyer)
  • TBA (Jörg Lücke)
  • Deep Noise Suppression (Jörn Anemüller)
  • Model-based and Learning-based Approaches for Speech Enhancement (Simon Doclo)
  • Ear Canal Acoustics Beyond Cylindrical Tubes – Mathematical Models, Numerical Simulation and Applications (Alexej Chernov and Matthias Blau)
  • Anthropomorphic and Learning-based Approaches for Speaker Localization (Steven van de Par)

Accompanying the tutorial talks, Bernd Meyer will offer a hands-on exercise on „Convolutional and Recurrent Networks for Speech Processing”. 


The Summer School is also a great opportunity to meet with other students and to discuss your own research and ideas with leading experts. Therefore, we invite all participants to present their research work during the poster sessions and to discuss in a relaxed atmosphere. 


The Summer School is free from registration fees. The CRC offers 8 travel grants for international Master and PhD students and national Master students (for more details, please see www.hearing-acoustics.de).

We are looking forward to see you in Oldenburg!

Volker Hohmann, Birger Kollmeier, Thomas Biberger & the organization team
