Abstract

A new one-semester course for graduate students introduces them to the field of computer audio from a computer science perspective. Students gain an understanding of sound, speech, and music and their digital representation and processing in computer software. Programming assignments provide hands-on experience in playing, recording, mixing, synthesizing, and analyzing audio. Class lectures present algorithms and techniques for compression, watermarking, synthesis, sonification, pitch and beat detection, audio fingerprinting, speech and speaker recognition, and audio retrieval.
