      Developing artificial intelligence and machine learning for music creation and production. Granted patents include Patent Numbers 9542918, 9183821, 9076423, 9000285, 8987574 and 8927846.Responsible for research, design, specification and implementation of large-scale AI projects.A system that analyses and composes music in the style analysed: Development of this system formed the bulk of my work for Exomens. The system is world-leading in the field of computer music and its algorithms are pioneering. I was responsible for all research, design and implementation of the system. I had to review and understand all available patent reports and competitive developments in the field. I worked with top patent lawyers to create the patents that the system generated. A system that converts polyphonic audio to MIDI: It was felt that the system required the functionality to be able to take audio files as an input (originally we were just using MIDI). We tried several audio converters but none of them worked well enough. Therefore I was tasked with developing an in-house solution. I researched the latest signal processing developments in several fields such as ultrasound in order to give our solution an advantage over those of our competitors in the field of audio analysis and believe that I largely succeeded.

Gameplay ProgrammingI have provided the code for several other gameplay systems. Team leading and supportI aided the other programmers as and when I could including providing advice and assistance related to audio and networking. Profiling and optimizationI have been responsible for reviewing our profiling options, teaching the team how to use these tools as well as using them regularly to keep an eye open for emerging problems. Unreal Engine 4 IntegrationIn the occasional times that the gameplay implementation is complicated by having to integrate with the Unreal Engine, I have provided solutions either in our codebase or occasionally in changes to the engine.
