January Inside Track Features Semantic Analysis and Deep Learning
The AES Inside Track features expert industry curators highlighting a topic of choice, with editorial insight as well as links to related research topics, videos, and more. It's available exclusively through the AES Member Portal and is a member benefit, free to all AES members. This month's curator is Christian Uhle, chair of the AES Technical Committee on Semantic Audio Analysis. Christian explains that with the omnipresence of digital multimedia data, the processing, analysis, and understanding of such data by means of automated methods has become a central issue in engineering and computer science. He introduces some useful material from the AES E-Library and elsewhere to get you started on the topic. This month's Spotlight video interview, hosted by Francis Rumsey, features Jonathan Moore of the University of Derby in the UK, talking about his November JAES paper on diffuse signal processing for sound reinforcement.
