Welcome to Dr. Amir Ivry for joining our team as a Visiting Lecturer

Amir completed his Ph.D. (direct track) under my supervision in 2023. Amir is currently the Head of Data, Teams CMD, at Microsoft Advanced Technology Labs.

I am happy to announce that Amir is joining our team as a Visiting Lecturer.

His research is focused on hands-free speech communication in noisy, transient, and reverberant environments using deep neural networks. In particular, he develops real-time and low-resource implementations that can be embedded into speech-based hands-free communication platforms. Applications include voice activity detection, residual echo suppression, acoustic echo cancellation, speech enhancement, and acoustic fencing for speech separation.
