Aitor Arronte Alvarez, Information Technology Specialist, holds a PhD from the School of Telecommunications Engineering at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. In his doctoral thesis he developed Deep Learning algorithms for the acoustic modeling of the human voice, obtaining state-of-the-art results in several tasks in Automatic Speech Recognition (language and speaker identification) and in Music Information Retrieval (singing style and singer recognition). He has worked on the computational modeling of prosodic typology for the identification of closely related languages, speech emotion recognition, spoken dialogue understanding, natural language processing, and the modeling of singing styles in the musics of the world.
