Summary
Thomas Pellegrini is an Associate Professor and researcher based in Toulouse with 12+ years of experience specializing in speech technologies and automatic speech recognition, particularly for applications in computer-assisted language learning. He blends academic rigor from a PhD at LIMSI-CNRS with practical research carried out during a postdoc at INESC-ID and ongoing work at Université Paul Sabatier, exploring pronunciation assessment, automatic exercise generation, and cross-domain adaptations to music processing and gesture-based interaction. Known for applying machine listening techniques beyond speech, he bridges acoustics, signal processing and human-computer interaction, informed by a multidisciplinary Master’s from ESPCI Paris. His profile reflects a steady academic trajectory with hands-on contributions to lecture and research activities at IRIT and a track record of translating core speech-tech advances into educational and interactive systems.
