Sebastian M�ller was born in 1968 and studied electrical engineering at the universities of Bochum (Germany), Orl�ans (France) and Bologna (Italy). Since 1994, he has held the position of a scientific researcher at the Institute of Communication Acoustics (IKA), Ruhr-University Bochum, and works on speech signal processing, speech technology, communication acoustics, as well as on speech communication quality aspects.
He received a Doctor-of-Engineering degree at Ruhr-University Bochum in 1999 for his work on the assessment and prediction of speech quality in telecommunications. In 2000, he was a guest scientist at the Institut dalle Molle d'Int�lligence Artificielle Perceptive (IDIAP) in Martigny (Switzerland) where he worked on the quality of speech recognition systems. He gained the qualification needed to be a professor (venia legendi) at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at Ruhr-University Bochum in 2004, with a book on the quality of telephone-based spoken dialogue systems.
Sebastian M�ller was awarded the GEERS prize in 1998 for his interdisciplinary work on the analysis of infant cries for early hearing-impairment detection, the ITG prize of the German Association for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies (VDE) in 2001, and the Lothar-Cremer prize of the German Acoustical Association (DEGA) in 2003. Since 1997, he has taken part in the standardisation activities of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) on transmission performance of telephone networks and terminals. He is currently acting as a Rapporteur for the new question Q.12/12. |
