    • In spring 2023, the theme of the Audio Technology Seminar will be "Deep Learning for Audio and Music Processing". The seminar will be suitable for a wide range of Acoustics and Audio Technology students, including MSc students who have not yet taken machine learning courses, but are willing to learn, and doctoral researchers who are familiar with and using deep learning methods. The seminar will run on periods IV and V, starting on Feb. 27, 2023, and ending in late May 2023. Ricardo Falcon and several other experts, who are applying deep learning for music and audio in their work, will provide introductory lectures. The seminar will be organized by Prof. Vesa Välimäki, Ricardo Falcon, Eloi Moliner, and Alec Wright. 

      The seminar started on Monday, February 27, 2023, at 14.15 in hall U8 (Otakaari 1, Espoo). All lectures of this seminar will take place in the same hall, U8.
