Speech, Music and Hearing (TMH)

Research at the Division of Speech, Music and Hearing (TMH) is truly multi-disciplinary including linguistics, phonetics, auditory perception, vision and experimental psychology. Rooted in an engineering modelling approach, our research forms a solid base for developing multimodal human-computer interaction systems in which speech, music, sound and gestures combine to create human-like communication.
