Vincent Lostanlen is a CNRS research scientist and former NYU visiting scholar who builds machine listening systems that span music, bioacoustics, and urban soundscapes. With 11 years of experience and a PhD from École normale supérieure, he leads multiple interdisciplinary projects (from multi-resolution neural nets to bioacoustic conservation) and recruits PhD students and postdocs in AI for music and wildlife monitoring. He combines theory—closed-form sound models and scattering transforms—with applied work, contributing to GPU-accelerated open-source tools like Kymatio to improve performance and testing for real-world ML. Based in Nantes, he bridges sensor design, self-supervised learning, and ecological monitoring, and brings an uncommon blend of musical training (specialized jazz study) and rigorous signal-processing expertise.
