Artificial Audio Group · FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg
We create new sound experiences through signal processing, machine learning, and an understanding of human perception.
The Artificial Audio Group at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is led by Prof. Sebastian J. Schlecht. We work closely with partners at Aalto University and the University of York.
