Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolRoberto Barumerli is a postdoctoral researcher and audio technologist with 11 years of experience applying probabilistic and Bayesian models to human sound perception and spatial audio. Currently a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at Imperial College’s Audio Experience Design group, he develops AI-driven methods to personalise immersive audio for XR without specialised equipment. His work bridges behavioural experiments, neurophysiology, and engineering—from hands-on motion-capture and electromyography studies with children and cochlear-implant users to tools predicting realism in immersive systems. Trained as a telecommunications engineer with a PhD from the University of Padova, he blends rigorous modelling with practical implementation (C/GStreamer and server-side systems) to make human-centered audio technologies more accessible. Notably, he translates nuanced individual differences in ear and head shape into scalable personalization strategies, aiming to democratise realistic spatial sound.
