Ajay Srinivasamurthy

I am currently an Applied Science Manager at Amazon Alexa, Bangalore India. Before Amazon, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Idiap Research Institute Martigny, Switzerland. I obtained a PhD from Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain working at the Music Technology Group (MTG) on the CompMusic project. Before joining MTG, I was a research assistant at the Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology. Prior to joining Tech, I worked at GE Global Research, John F Welch Technology Centre, Bangalore. I have a Masters in Signal Processing from the Dept. of Electrical Communication Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India and a B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering from National Institute of Technology Karnataka (NITK), Surathkal.

My research interests include Speech, Audio and Music Signal Processing. I am a fan of percussion instruments and I am learning the Carnatic classical percussion instrument "Mridangam". I also love to play the Morsing (Jew's harp).
