Rate My Professor T Nagarajan

He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras in 2004 and an M.E. from Madurai Kamaraj University in 1992, along with a Post-Doctoral Fellowship from the National Institute of Scientific Research, Montreal, Canada. His research specializations encompass Automatic Speech Recognition, Text-to-Speech Synthesis, Speech Signal Processing, Acoustic Modeling, Machine Learning, and Music Signal Processing. In recognition of his contributions to Tamil computing, particularly developing a lightweight HMM-Based speech synthesizer and various applications, he received the Chief Minister’s Award for Tamil Computing in 2020 from the Government of Tamil Nadu. Dr. Nagarajan has a prolific publication record with 47 journal papers, 82 conference papers, and 12 book chapters. Notable works include “Higher order statistics-driven magnitude and phase spectrum estimation for speech enhancement” in Computer Speech & Language (2024), “Chirp Group Delay-Based Onset Detection in Instruments with Fast Attack” in Circuits, Systems, and Signal Processing (2023), “Data Augmentation Techniques for Transfer Learning-Based Continuous Dysarthric Speech Recognition” in Circuits, Systems, and Signal Processing (2023), “Multi-level single-channel speech enhancement using a unified framework for estimating magnitude and phase spectra” in IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language Processing (2020), and “A Weighted Speaker-Specific Confusion Transducer-Based Augmentative and Alternative Speech Communication Aid for Dysarthric Speakers” in IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (2018).
