About


Michael McAuliffe

I am currently working in the speech tech industry on conversational voice assistants. Previously, I worked as postdoctoral research fellow at McGill University supervised by Morgan Sonderegger and Michael Wagner. I received my PhD from the University of British Columbia. My thesis was on lexically-guided perceptual learning and attention (available here, code available here). Much of my computational research on GitHub deals with speech sounds in spontaneous and laboratory speech, and in the ways that signal processing techniques can represent those sounds.
