Summary
Kin Wah Edward Lin is a PhD-trained research engineer with nine years of experience bridging academic audio research and industrial AI product development across Hong Kong and Japan. He specializes in singing voice separation, singer-assist apps, and voice conversion using deep learning, work that originated during a postdoctoral appointment at AIST and later informed roles at AWL and RevComm. Fluent in both research and production environments, he has taught undergraduates, delivered enterprise software (including OCR and document management solutions), and reviewed for top venues like Interspeech, ICASSP, and IEEE/ACM TASLP. Based in Sapporo, he combines strong academic credentials (SUTD PhD, HKUST MPhil/BE/BBA) with hands-on engineering, and maintains a rare blend of signal-processing research depth and product-focused engineering execution.
