Summary
Angel Villar-corrales is a postdoctoral researcher at Meta with eight years of experience bridging machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision to teach intelligent systems to interpret images, video and audio. He earned a PhD in Autonomous Intelligent Systems from the University of Bonn after an MSc in Advanced Signal Processing and Communications, and has hands-on expertise in Python-centric stacks (PyTorch, NumPy, SciPy) and signal-processing libraries like Kymatio and Librosa. His work spans academic and applied projects—from image clustering with scattering transforms to music information retrieval and semi-automatic score-to-audio alignment—demonstrating a knack for combining modern deep learning with classical signal-processing theory. Based in Paris, he brings strong foundations in convex optimization, information theory and digital communications, and a track record of supervising and teaching students alongside publishing research. A practical programmer who moves between research and reproducible code, he often develops tooling and notebooks that make complex audio–visual experiments accessible.
