The potential topics include (and are not limited to):
- Deep generative models, adversarial learning
- Attention-based models and curriculum learning
- Statistical/deterministic audio models (signal models, sound propagation models,…)
- with applications to MIR, Music synthesis or DCASE

Candidate Profile:
- For the Phd positions: A masters degree in applied mathematics, datascience/computer science or speech/audio/music processing is required.
- For the Postdoc position: PhD degree and publications in theory or applications of machine learning, generative modelling, discrete optimal transport or signal processing, ideally with applications to Speech/Audio/Music signals.
