Job Opportunity: Research Fellow in Room Acoustic Modelling:

Job description:

Job location: Guildford
income: £33,309 to £38,587
Hours: Full Time
Contract Type: Fixed-Term/Contract

Published in: 19th May 2022
Closing date: 26th June 2022
Reference: 033022

 

Applications are invited for a Research Fellow to be located in the Institute of Sound Recording (IoSR, http://iosr.uk) and to work full-time on the EPSRC project SCReAM (?SCalable Room Acoustic Modelling?). The post is available for 24 months, from 1/August/2022 until 31/July/2024. For an exceptional candidate, a slightly later start date may be accommodated, subject to the approval from the funder. You can submit the application up until 26/June/2022, but you are encouraged to do so as soon as possible since interviews may start even before the deadline.

The post-holder will work on exploring connections between room acoustic models; defining new unifying and scalable room acoustic models; adapting those models for application in e.g. consumer electronics, computer games, immersive media, and architectural acoustics.
The prosperous applicant will have a range of skills, including some of the following: strong, independent research skills; an excellent signal processing background; expertise of room acoustic models; skills/interest in numerical acoustics; enthusiasm for working with project partners at other universities and organisations (including, among others, KU Leuven, Electronic Arts and Sonos).
The IoSR is home to the Tonmeister degree in Music and Sound Recording, which produced a stream of highly prosperous graduates (including three Oscar winners, seven Grammy winners, and twelve BAFTA winners), and is a leading centre for research in acoustic engineering. It has several projects funded from research councils and industry, involving human listening tests, acoustic measurement, statistical modelling and digital signal processing. Current work is, for example, developing systems for spatial enhancement of object-located audio reproduction, for timbral perception modelling, and for next-generation environment-aware headphones.
