Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJesús López is an Assistant Research Professor at Johns Hopkins CLSP with a decade of focused experience in extracting identity and paralinguistic information from speech. He holds an M.Sc. in Telecommunications and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Zaragoza, where his dissertation advanced speaker recognition under adverse conditions. Jesús has bridged academia and industry—from internships in Brno and Agnitio to developing robust speaker recognition for Cirrus Logic—bringing practical, product-minded research to state-of-the-art systems. His expertise spans speaker diarization, language and emotion inference, Bayesian methods, and deep generative models, with a particular interest in unsupervised learning for real-world speech variability. Colleagues describe him as a researcher who pairs rigorous probabilistic foundations with hands-on system implementation, often exploring attack resilience and speech quality measures that are easy to overlook.
