My academic background includes an Electrical Engineer's degree from the ISEN Engineering College, Toulon, France, a Master of Research in Signal Processing from the Toulon-Var University, France, and a PhD in Acoustics from the Aix-Marseille University, France. My PhD topic was psychoacoustical measures of auditory time-frequency masking and application to the analysis-synthesis of sounds, supervised by Sophie Savel and Richard Kronland-Martinet.
My research interests connect my two areas of expertise, namely time-frequency representations and auditory masking. Specifically, my research interests lie in the development of new signal processing techniques for the perceptual analysis, transformation, and synthesis of sounds, and in the understanding and modeling of human auditory perception with an emphasis on peripheral processing. I am currently the scientific coordinator of the French-Austrian collaborative research project POTION: "Perceptual optimization of time-frequency representations and audio coding".
