Freelance Audio Data and Engineer - Conducting research, experimentation, prototyping and software development for audio related projects, specifically for machine and deep learning. - Conducting research and writing of scientific-technical reports for the audio area. - Audio Recording and Sound Engineering for art audio projects.

I created a pipeline of feature extraction and classification using python for dialogue successfulness prediction, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Yannis Stylianou and Dr. Margarita Kotti. This resulted in a 10% improvement in comparison to previous systems. The results were written and will be pusbished as a scientific paper in a peer-reviewed conference.
