The NYU Biofeedback Intervention Technology for Speech Lab (
BITS), in collaboration with the Music and Audio Research Lab (
MARL), is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to contribute to a project developing real-time acoustic biofeedback software for clinical speech intervention (PI: Tara McAllister).
Applicants should have expertise in digital signal processing, audio and acoustics, or machine learning and demonstrated experience working with speech data. The project involves visualizing the acoustic signal of sibilant sounds for use in intervention for adolescents with severe jaw misalignment (dentofacial disharmony). The postdoc will contribute to the development of acoustic visualization tools and compare analytic and AI/ML approaches to the classification of typical versus distorted sibilant productions.
