Background
- Professor in Digital Signal Processing and Dean of Engineering at The University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. Previously Head of School of the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications. Co-Director of the NSW Smart Sensing Network. Scientific Advisor for Boston-based startup Sonde Health, where he has worked on speech-based assessment of mental health. Also held an appointment as a Contributed Principal Researcher with Data61, CSIRO, working on methods for automatic task analysis using behavioural and physiological signals. His research interests include applications of speech modelling and processing, particularly to emotion and mental state recognition from speech and signals from wearable sensors. He has also worked on genomic sequence processing and aspects of human-computer interaction, including multimodal interfaces and computer-supported cooperative work.
