The Idiap Research Institute is an independent, non-profit research foundation specializing in multimedia information management and in multimodal man-machine interaction.
This project aims at developing new machine learning methods relying on very large number of hand designed heuristics, together with statistical tools to facilitate the design of these heuristics in an open and collaborative framework.
Idiap just received the new prototype of a microphone array device which includes the
improvements developed during last year project (see previous news below).
No more need of bulky cables (see comparison picture) which are now replaced
by a simple USB connexion, but also no more need to carry an external
soundcard with you; all you need is your Mac and the microphone array.
