Research is mainly in the speech communication field but extends to any field related to acoustics and speech (e.g., linguistics, speech and language pathology, psychology, social welfare, education, and musicology), so we do interdisciplinary research.
Selected topics:
1) education in acoustics (e.g., physical models of human vocal tract),
2) acoustic phonetics,
3) speech and hearing sciences,
4) speech production,
5) speech analysis and speech synthesis,
6) speech signal processing (e.g., speech enhancement),
7) speech / language recognition and spoken language processing,
8) speech perception and psychoacoustics,
9) acoustics for speech disorders,
10) speech processing for hearing impaired,
11) speaker characteristics in speech, and
12) real-time signal processing using DSP processors.
