Biography

Welcome! I am an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics at the University of Udine.

I received my PhD degree from the University of Udine, Italy. My doctoral research focused on the Acoustic Source Localization Using Microphone Arrays.

I do research in audio and acoustic signal processing. My research activity is concerned specifically on acoustic sensor array processing and computer audition:

• source localization and tracking
• signal enhancement beamforming
• deep learning methods for acoustic sensor array processing
• simultaneous localization and mapping of sources and sensors
• binaural hearing
• acoustic scene classification
• acoustic event detection and classification
• speaker identificaion

At this time I am involved in:

• steered response power algorithms
• acoustic sensor array processing and convolutional neural networks
• time delay estimation methods
• automatic procedure for the optimal microphones arrangement
• sound source localization with moving microphone arrays
• microphone array musical interface
• microphone arrays on drone
• machine learning in acoustic source localization
• speaker identification with deep learning
• joint localization and identification of speakers
• binaural acquisition and reproduction

Editorial Activities

I am an associate editor of IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language Processing, and an handling editor of Signal Processing.

I was an academic editor of Complexity (2021-2023), a managing guest editor of Pattern Recognition Letters for the special issue "Deep Learning for Acoustic Sensor Array Processing", and a guest editor of Electronics for the special issue "Applications of Audio and Acoustic Signal".

Review Activities

I serve as reviewer for international journals published by IEEE, Elsevier, Springer Nature, ASA, MDPI, Taylor & Francis Group.

Membership in Professional Societies

I am a senior member of the IEEE, and an affiliate member of the IEEE Audio and Acoustic Signal Processing Technical Committee.
