Speech recognition (SASSY): Programmer June 2013 – July 2013
Design and developed an Artificial Neural network to classify and recognize the input signals,
using Mel Frequency Cepstral Co efficients (MFCC).
Data of over 100 plus community, each with 24 different inputs.
Fundamental analysis of the AIFF signals in MAT LAB.
Edit and catalog the WAV signal using Final cut pro and Logic pro, Data processing and
warehousing.
Index forecasting in R:
Developed an R script to determine the future evolution of the stock index, based on models
obtained with historical quotes data, Time series analysis.
Incorporated trading system that generates its decisions based on the predictions of the
model, based on behavior X followed by behavior Z.
Techniques used to build/test the models Support vector machines, Artificial neural network
and Multivariate adaptive regression splines.
Model can be tailored to analyze other index/scripts with minimal modifications.
Musical gesture analysis (MATLAB, Python):
Identification of emotional performance from physical gestures alone. Investigation on the
relationships between the emotion that is conveyed and any physical gestures that occur.
Establish gesture types, Relationships with the gestures and the audio outp ut or musical
content of the performance.
Classification of gestures.
Using K means algorithm, spectrogram analysis, Spearman rank correlation for performance.
Gait analysis: Kinetic and kinematic analysis. Pro tools: frequency displacement analysis.
