Andrei Andrusenko is a Senior Applied Scientist at NVIDIA and a PhD candidate in Computer Science at ITMO University, with six years of experience building state-of-the-art ASR and DSP systems. He designs and ships end-to-end speech recognition models (CTC, RNN-T, seq2seq) for NeMo while drawing on prior work creating hybrid ASR solutions across many languages at STC Group. His research and engineering blend produced prize-winning results in VOICES, CHiME-6 and GRAM VAANI challenges and peer-reviewed publications in INTERSPEECH and other venues. An active contributor to the ESPnet community, he has improved CHiME6 data pipelines and guided source separation scripts, reflecting a practical focus on robust data preprocessing and MLOps for audio. Based in Yerevan, he pairs academic rigor with production-grade implementation, often surfacing subtle dataset and pipeline fixes that materially improve model performance.

Contributions summary:Andrei's commits primarily focused on modifying and enhancing scripts related to the CHiME6 dataset within the ESPnet framework. They added and updated scripts for data preparation, particularly for guided source separation (GSS) enhancement techniques. The user made adjustments to the GSS settings, implemented installation procedures for dependencies, and corrected data processing steps. These changes suggest a focus on refining data pipelines and processing for audio analysis.
