Audio Signal Processing | Bernardini | Unsupervised Speech Quality Estimation (in collaboration with Fraunhofer IIS, Erlangen) | Full thesis | Quantifying the quality of a speech signal is a challenging and complex problem due to the sophisticated structure of speech signals and the subjective nature of speech quality, influenced by cognitive factors. This challenge increases in the absence of a clean reference signal, a scenario of significant practical relevance. Recently, self-supervised and non-intrusive audio quality measures have gained popularity, driven by the impressive performance of self-supervised methods in tasks such as automatic speech recognition. This thesis aims to explore the application of self-supervised methods for speech signal quality estimation. Specifically, it involves obtaining subjective listening scores and validating the performance of non-intrusive speech quality measures using the acquired scores. These scores will be utilized to develop a self-supervised speech quality metric based on compressed latent space representations of the speech signal. The student undertaking this research is expected to have a foundational understanding of speech and audio signal processing, as well as deep learning. Practical skills required include proficiency in Python, along with experience in using the numpy and PyTorch libraries. [The thesis will be developed in collaboration with Fraunhofer IIS, Erlangen.] |

Audio Signal Processing | Mezza, Bernardini | Deep Packet Loss Concealment for Speech and Music | Full thesis | Audio communications over the Internet have become an integral part of everyday life. However, speed is often prioritized over reliability in order to respect strict real-time constraints. Consequently, short audio segments (packets) risk being severely delayed or lost. We recently developed deep Packet Loss Concealment (PLC) methods, as well as hybrid PLC algorithms combining signal-processing and deep-learning techniques in a synergistic way. In this thesis, we will explore its performance on speech and/or music signals. The thesis won't deal with network-related and other IP-related aspects. [Required knowledge: signal processing theory; practical experience with deep learning.] |

Musical Acoustics | Pezzoli, Cillo, Longo | Enhancement of a reduced-order finite-element model of a classical guitar | Full/short thesis | [Thesis abroad at the Institute of Engineering and Computational Mechanics (ITM), University of Stuttgart, Germany.] A recently developed high-fidelity finite-element guitar model combined with experimental modal analysis can successfully identify the material characteristics of already existing instruments. Parametric Model Order Reduction (PMOR) is applied to significantly reduce the computational time of the model. During the PMOR procedure, minor simplifications to the model need to be undertaken, leading to deviations of the reduced-order model from the original model. This thesis aims to enhance the reduced-order model via optimization and/or data-driven methods to compensate for the error term resulting from the simplifications in the reduced-order model. Required knowledge: foundations on Finite Element Methods, in depth-knowledge of deep learning (long version). |

Audio signal processing | Giampiccolo, Bernardini | Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks for Virtual Analog Modeling | Full thesis | The thesis concerns the study and implementation of Kolmogorov-Arnold neural networks for the emulation of audio circuits in the Wave Digital domain. Kolmogorov-Arnold networks reverse the Multi-layer Perceptron's paradigm by learning activation functions rather than weights and biases.

Audio signal processing | Giampiccolo, Bernardini | Gradient Descent Methods for the Emulation of Nonlinear Audio Circuits | Full thesis | The thesis concerns the study and implementation of gradient methods for the emulation of audio circuits in the Wave Digital domain.

Nevertheless, these approaches are dependent on the training dataset used (i.e., acquisition setup and vibrational source). This thesis aims at extending the recent solutions with transfer learning strategies in order to tune the networks with different data and improving the model with specific physical priors to reconstruct the vibrational content with an unsupervised approach (long thesis). [knowledge of Deep Learning required] |
Musical Acoustics | Gonzalez, Malvermi, Antonacci | Experimental measurement and construction of violin top plates | Full/short thesis | The aim of this thesis is twofold: measure the material properties of violin top plates and build violin top plates with certain material properties. For this the student will use a CNC router to build the plates and a experimental set up that measures the FRF of the plate to compute its material parameters. The goal is to be able to produce top plates with a defined mechanical response irrespective of the varying material parameters of the wood the top is made of. Experimental thesis in Cremona Campus, FEM modelling required, Fusion 360 optional. |
Musical Acoustics | Gonzalez, Antonacci | Role of f-hole design in stress distribution and radiation of the violin | Long thesis | The role of the f-holes in violins is to let the sound vibrations leave the body of the instrument and reach the audience. However, cutting holes in the top plate weakens it. By cutting curves and circles, the instrument maker avoids creating the stress concentrations associated with sharp corners. The aim of this thesis is to study the behaviour of a violin for different f-hole designs/locations. Comsol experience needed. |
Musical Acoustics | Gonzalez, Malvermi, Antonacci | Effect of tailpiece height in the acoustic response of a violin | Long thesis | Varying the height of the tailpiece is one of the ways luthiers can control the sound production of the violin. By changing the angle of the strings, there is a modification in the effective pressure that the bridge, and consequently the violin top plate, feels. This compression of the violin is believed to affect the sound production of the instrument. This thesis aims to study, by means of simulations, the effect the net static force in the bridge has in the dynamics of the instrument. If time allows the thesis could also include experimental measurements with the help of Amorim fine violins. |
Musical Acoustics | Gonzalez, Longo, Antonacci | Linear interpolation between shapes in western guitars | Long thesis | In one of our last thesis projects we have developed a completely parametric model of the guitar.

The work involves the creation of different virtual models and its study with Comsol multiphysics. |
Musical Acoustics | Gonzalez, Greco, Antonacci | Timbral Study of 3D printed organ pipes | Long thesis | Recently, researchers have presented a theoretical model to understand the timbre of the organ by mapping its sound to a bi-dimensional map in the spectral-centroid and envelope slope of the spectra. This thesis wants to study how geometric variations in 3D printed organ pipes determine the location of the sound in this timbral map. |

Created in Paris by Italian luthier Macaferri, they represent a particular understanding of how to make instruments. Their design takes from the parlour guitar in terms of bracing, from the archtop in its shape and floating bridge, and from the mandolin in its bent top plate. The aim of this thesis is to study, by means of simulations, different bracing patterns that could inform a new way of crafting these instruments. The selected model when then be built by one of the advisors. |
Musical Acoustics | Greco, Antonacci | Neural Network-Based Prediction of Woodwind Mouthpiece Sound Characteristics through Finite Element Method Simulations | Long thesis | This master's thesis proposes a novel approach to explore the relationship between geometric parameters of woodwind instrument mouthpieces and their corresponding sound characteristics. Employing COMSOL Multiphysics, Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations will be conducted to assess impedance variations. Simulated geometries will be transformed into transfer matrices to create a dataset for training a neural network. The objective is to develop a predictive model capable of estimating sound behavior without explicit FEM simulations, thus offering a more efficient and accessible method for instrument design and optimization. The study aims to contribute to the field of music and acoustic engineering by reducing computational costs and time associated with traditional simulation methods. |
