Subject: [AUDITORY] Invitation to apply for fully-funded summer undergraduate research program: Computational Methods for Understanding Music, Media, and Minds From: "Piazza, Elise" <epiazza@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2023 04:28:21 +0000--_000_BN7PR07MB458085764A42B05A90B3881AE3C99BN7PR07MB4580namp_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear colleagues, We are glad to inform you that applications are now being accepted for the = University of Rochester NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) pr= ogram on Computational Methods for Understanding Music, Media, and Minds fo= r Summer 2023. Students in the REU will work on projects in exciting, interdisciplinary re= search areas that combines machine learning, music theory and cognitive sci= ence. The project topics for Summer 2023 include: =93Modeling Brain Responses Dur= ing Naturalistic Music Performance=94, "The Impact of Musical Features and = Expertise on Summary Statistical =93Gist=94 Processing of Music=94, and =93= Continual Learning in Deep Neural Networks of Audio-Visual Data=94. The REU experience will also include: * Programming boot camps focusing on Machine Learning/Deep learning in = Python. * Workshops on professional development and preparing for graduate scho= ol (in partnership with the Kearns Center for Leadership and Diversity<htt= ps://www.rochester.edu/college/kearnscenter/index.html>) * Career Pathways seminar series by academic and industry professionals * Social outings and networking opportunities For more information including description of planned projects and applicat= ion details, please refer our dedicated REU website: http://www.sas.rochest= er.edu/dsc/undergraduate/reu.html. In addition, details on past projects are also available on the website. An= y queries can be addressed to: gids-reu@xxxxxxxx<mailto:gids-reu@xxxxxxxx= .Rochester.edu> The application deadline for the program is January 29, 20= 23.
