We enable hundreds of millions of commercial and social interactions among our users, between consumers and merchants, and among businesses every day though speech. We are on the top a gold mine of high quality big data with millions of real data samples. *What You=E2=80=99ll Do* Develop and refine algorithms to improve speech system performance under adverse conditions. To be specific, we will assign either of the following project to you according to your background: 1)* Speaker recognition*: feature & model design, system fusion 2) *Emotion Identification:* data purification, prediction with limited out-of-domain data, feature & model design At the end of internship, a conference paper is expected. *Skills You=E2=80=99ll Need* PhD candidate in Engineering, Computer Science or a related field Proficiency in audio signal processing and robust acoustic feature engineering is a plus Experience with speech system performance improvements under adverse condition is a plus Deep learning (DNN, CNN, LSTM) Familiarity with C++, Python, Bash shell Familiarity with Kaldi, DNN toolkits Solid publication record *Contacts:* Gang Liu gDOTliu@xxxxxxxx please use . to replace DOT =EF=BC=88Application is processed on a rolling basis=EF=BC=89 --=20 *Gang LIU * Seattle, Washionton https://sites.google.com/site/GangLiuResearch <https://sites.google.com/site/gangliuresearch> --000000000000f970840574327765 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div class=3D"gmail_quote"><div><b style=3D"font-family:Ca= libri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt"><span style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-famil= y:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">Title:</span></b><span style=3D"fon= t-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"> Speech res= earch/machine learning internship @xxxxxxxx</span><br></div> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span = style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"= >Time:</span></b><span style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-ser= if;color:rgb(33,33,33)"> Fall2018, Spring2019</span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span = style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"= >Job location</span></b><span style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,s= ans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">: Seattle, WA / =C2=A0San Francisco, CA / Be= ijing</span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><br></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span = style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"= >About You</span></b><span style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans= -serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"></span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span sty= le=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">A = willingness to be a better you on a day by day basis.</span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span = style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"= >About Us:</span></b><span style=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans= -serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)"></span></p> <p class=3D"MsoNormal" style=3D"margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;line-height:normal;= vertical-align:top;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span sty= le=3D"font-size:11.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:rgb(33,33,33)">We= are Machine Intelligence Technology -Intelligent Speech Interaction-Speech, Alibaba Group (U.S.) Inc= .
