Research interests:
My interests are in the area of neuroscience, signal processing and sensory engineering with particular application to speech and hearing. My work lies at the intersection of biomedical, computer and communications engineering. Students working in my group typically have an interdisciplinary approach with interests in signal processing, algorithm design, modelling and psychology.

Keywords: speech, hearing, signal processing, neuroscience, information theory, pattern analysis, psychophysics

Publications: You can find many of my publications here.
