Our team at Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) is looking for an RA for 6 months to help develop nnAudio. You will be joining our team in music/audio/vision AI supervised by Prof. Dorien Herremans. More information on the music/audio team at dorienherremans.com/team. You will be working on the PyTorch audio processing tool nnAudio developed by Cheuk Kin Wai at our lab.

Congratulations to Raven for publishing 'nnAudio: An on-the-fly GPU Audio to Spectrogram Conversion Toolbox Using 1D Convolutional Neural Networks', in IEEE Access. nnAudio allows you to calculate spectrograms (linear, log, Mel, CQT) on-the-fly as a layer in PyTorch. This makes the spectrograms finetunable to your task! nnAudio is easy to install with pip, see instructions at https://github.com/KinWaiCheuk/nnAudio

Looking for a tool to extract spectrograms on the fly, integrated as a layer in PyTorch? Look no further than nnAudio, a toolbox developed by PhD student Raven (Cheuk Kin Wai): https://github.com/KinWaiCheuk/nnAudio

nnAudio is available in pip (pip install nnaudio), full documentation available on the github page. Also check out our dedicated paper:
