Dr Xinlei Niu (PhD 2022-2026)

Generative Audio Synthesis in Sound, Speech, and Music (thesis)

Xinlei’s PhD developed six methods for making generative audio synthesis more efficient, flexible, and controllable across speech, environmental sound, and music. She now works at TikTok in Sydney.

Dr Yichen Wang (PhD 2021-2026)

Beyond Mapping: Exploring Spatial Musical Interface Design with Augmented Reality (thesis)

Yichen designed and studied three spatial musical interfaces for head-mounted AR, covering freehand solo performance, collaborative performance between musicians, and human-AI co-creation.

Feiyue Tao (Master student 2022)

Multi-View Web Interfaces in Augmented Reality (thesis)

Feiyue created a VR system for experimenting with web interfaces in a work environment and was awarded a Postgraduate Medal for Academic Excellence in her Master of Computing (Advanced) program. During her program, Feiyue was a research trainee at CSIRO Data61 and she was recruited by Google soon after graduation.

Dr Xinlei Niu (Master student at ANU 2020-2021)

Acoustic Scene Classification with Attention-based Neural Networks (thesis)

Dr Yichen Wang (Master student 2020-2021)

Sonic sculptural staircase: An investigation of highly immersive and world aware augmented reality in augmented sculptural staircase experience (thesis)

Tønnes Nygaard (PhD Researcher at University of Oslo 2016-2020)

Legging It: An Evolutionary Approach to Morphological Adaptation for a Real-World Quadruped Robot (thesis)

Tønnes created a open-source quadruped robotics platform with mechanically extensible legs for evolving robot morphology in real-world activity. His work was featured in Nature: Machine Intelligence, Evolutionary Computation and was widely reported in the press. Tønnes now holds a faculty position at Oslo Metropolitan University and collaborates with the University of Oslo, Norwegian Defence Research Establishment, and CSIRO Data61.
