Academic Achievements
  • Contributed to the Voice-based Depression Study, developing speech-based models for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) to aid in genetic phenotyping.
  • Worked on FusedF0: F0 Estimation, improving DNN-based fundamental frequency estimation by fusing summary-correlograms and raw waveform representations.
  • Participated in the African American English Study.
  • Involved in Children's ASR System Development and research on the development of acoustic and articulatory features in children.
  • Contributed to the creation of a longitudinal kids' speech database using Jibo, the social robot.
