Research Assistant in Cognitive Hearing Technology - DTU Health Tech

Job description

Would you like to become part of European research project developing next-generation AI-based hearing technology for smart glasses? Are you interested in audio-visual signal processing, hearing technology, or human communication experiments? Do you hold a master’s degree in engineering, audio-visual signal processing, AI, or computer science? Then this position may be an excellent fit for you. We are seeking a full-time Research Assistant for a 1-year appointment within the EU-funded project WeHear aimed at developing future cognitive hearing instruments. The project focuses on creating context-aware hearing technologies that use egocentric video on smart glasses to identify relevant communication partners and generate socially intelligent audio renderings of the user’s acoustic environment. The mission is to create technology that helps to solve an essential challenge faced by people with hearing loss: extracting relevant speech from noisy real-world listening situations. In WeHear, you will join an international, multidisciplinary team of researchers across Europe working in computer vision, egocentric video, spatial audio technology, audio-visual sensing, and hearing research....
