SAP lunch!
It was great to go for lunch with the SAP lab last Thursday. It was also nice to meet the new members.
UKAN+ Summer School 2023 (UKANSS23)
It was a privilege to be able to help organise UKANSS23. We had a great time looking at digital signal processing (DSP) and its uses in acoustics, as well as exploring how to prepare research grant applications.
Basic Auditory Science Meeting
It was great to be a co-chair of BAS 2023 as well as presenting my work on the use of machine learning for HRTF upsampling.
Paper at Forum Acusticum 2023
Really encouraging to have my work accepted for Forum Acusticum 2023 in Turin, Italy in September 2023. A. Hogg, H. Liu, M. Jenkins and L. Picinali: Exploring the Impact of Transfer Learning on GAN-Based HRTF Upsampling In: Proc. EAA Forum Acusticum, European Congress on Acoustics, 2023.
Royal Society event on science policy
We had a great time back at the Royal Society last night, where we engaged members of the science-policy world with our immersive audio research, including Greg Clark, Chair of the House of Commons Science Innovation & Technology Select Committee.
Farewell drinks for Gunhee
I wish you all the best for the future Gunhee, who was my IROP (International Research Opportunities Programme) placement student for the last two months. Thank you for all your excellent work!
The Royal Society’s Summer Science Exhibition
The last week, I and the team have been demonstrating our research to the public at the Royal Society’s Annual Summer Science Exhibition. It has been fantastic to raise awareness of our work and research into immersive audio!!!
Our new paper on the use of GANs to upsample HRTFs is now available!
