Full Name: Jesper Rindom Jensen Institution: Aalborg University School: The Technical Faculty of IT and Design Department: Department of Electronic Systems Research Lab: Audio Analysis Lab Email: jrj@es.aau.dk Office: Fredrik Bajers Vej 7B, B5-206, 9220 Aalborg Øst, Denmark Education: M.Sc. in Electronic Systems, Aalborg University (cum laude, 2009) Ph.D. in Signal Processing, Aalborg University (2012) Research Interests: Jesper Rindom Jensen's research centers on audio signal processing, with a strong emphasis on artificial intelligence, speech enhancement, noise reduction, beamforming, and multichannel systems. His work applies to diverse domains including robot and drone audition, spatial audio, and active noise control. He develops novel filtering techniques, including variable span linear filters and harmonic beamformers, to improve speech quality and intelligibility in noisy and reverberant environments. Publication Trends: His recent publications (2023–2025) show a strong trend toward integrating deep learning with classical signal processing, particularly in direction-of-arrival estimation, underwater acoustics, and robust multichannel systems. There is a clear focus on real-world applications, including sound zone control, active noise control, and limited-data scenarios using knowledge distillation. His work consistently emphasizes robustness, efficiency, and practical deployment. Scientific Awards and Recognition: AAU Talent for emerging research leaders Recipient of a competitive postdoc grant from the Danish Independent Research Council Advising and Grants: Jesper has supervised multiple PhD and master’s students, including Nørholm, Karimian-Azari, Zhang, and Wang. He has led significant research projects such as 'Sound Processing for Robots and Drones' (2018–2020) and participated in others related to joint audio-visual tracking and speech enhancement. His research has been supported by national funding bodies, reflecting its innovation and impact. Labs and Teams: He is a founding and core member of the Audio Analysis Lab at Aalborg University, which focuses on cutting-edge audio signal processing and AI-driven solutions. The lab fosters interdisciplinary collaboration and has produced numerous publications, datasets, and real-world applications. Jensen’s leadership since 2023 underscores his pivotal role in shaping the lab’s research direction.
