I worked on modelling of music, non-musical audio (speech, sound effects, and digital audio effects), and textual data (literary stories). I combined statistical ML ( SpaCy, Flair, and Sklearn) with lexical and commonsense knowledge bases (WordNet, ConceptNet), as well as rule-based methods to extract information from literary stories such as characters, locations, and emotions, organize and recommend relevant audio assets, generate production scripts, and produce takes based on best practices.
