Xavier Rodet 

Manager of Analysis/synthesis research team, Ircam Rodet, Xavier

Xavier Rodet's research interests are in the areas of signal and pattern analysis, recognition and synthesis. He has been working particularly on digital signal processing for speech, speech and singing voice synthesis and automatic speech recognition. Computer Music is his other main domain of interest. He has been working on understanding spectro-temporal patterns of musical sounds and on synthesis-by-rules. He has been developing new methods, programs and patents for musical sound signal analysis, synthesis and control. He is also working on physical models of musical instruments and nonlinear dynamical systems applied to sound signal synthesis.
