About me

Hey there. Welcome to my site!

I’m studying music technology at McGill University in Montreal, QC, Canada.
Exploring a range of interdisciplinary topics in music information retrieval, my research involves signal processing, machine learning, and music.
I’m a research assistant at Distributed Digital Music Archives & Libraries Lab, currently working on Django web development. I’m also a student member at Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and Technology (CIRMMT).

Current Project:

I’m currently working on detecting expression techniques in guitar audio recordings. Specifically, I’m working with guitar audio signals and annotations generated from Guitar Pro files. With supervised machine learning, I aim to identify instances of bend, vibrato, hammer-on, pull-off, and slide in guitar solo recordings.

Past Projects:

  • SVM-powered Guitar Plucking Style Classifier [PDF] [Code]
  • Impulsive Noise Detection and Removal based on auto-regressive modelling [PDF] [Code]
  • Key Estimation of Polyphonic Music Signal using Harmonic Pitch Class Profile (HPCP) [PDF] [Code]
  • Interactive Demo of Electric Guitar Synthesis Model based on Extended Karplus-Strong Algorithm [PDF] [Code]
