Stephen Roessner

Stephen Roessner is an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Hajim School of Engineering & Applied Sciences, University of Rochester. He holds a PhD from the same institution (2023). His research focuses on audio engineering and acoustics, emphasizing psychoacoustics of distributed mode loudspeakers, audio preservation, microphone theory, and spectral analysis. He has conducted extensive studies on listener preferences for flat-panel loudspeakers and temporal patterns in music. His work integrates signal processing, room acoustics, and human-computer interaction.

• Education: PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Rochester (2023)

Key research areas include audio latency masking, real-time signal processing frameworks, and ensemble performance timing analysis. His articles frequently explore loudspeaker design, reverberation effects, and audio preservation strategies. Notably, he has investigated trends in US Billboard music tempo and structural acoustics of glass loudspeakers.

His research has been published across multiple venues, including the Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics and specialized journals in audio engineering. While no specific awards are listed, his contributions reflect sustained innovation in acoustic technologies and music informatics.
