معرفی
Ryan Corey (he/him/his) is an Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois Chicago in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, College of Engineering. His research focuses on audio and acoustic signal processing for human listening technologies such as hearing aids and augmented reality systems.
- Education: MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2014), BSE in Electrical Engineering from Princeton University (2012)
- Teaching: Co-instructor for TE 401: Develop Breakthrough Projects, ranked as excellent by students multiple times
Corey's research explores signal processing algorithms that combine audio signals from distributed microphone arrays to isolate desired sounds from background noise. His work has potential applications in hearing devices that can enhance specific speaker voices in crowded environments. He also investigates innovative prototyping approaches using unconventional microphone placements on wearable devices.
His recent publications focus on advanced beamforming techniques, adaptive filtering methods, and sensor network applications in audio processing. These include topics such as random projections in beamforming, neural adaptive filters, and sound field interpolation using acoustic sensor networks.
