Thrilled to have attended the 13th ASEAN Workshop on Information Science and Technology (AWIST 2025)! It was fantastic catching up with PhD friends who are now working at other universities. I also found some genuinely interesting research outside my field, like the implementation of ICT in agricultural systems.

It was an honor to speak at the University of Zurich's Phonetics Lunch Meeting. I presented on the challenges of multilingual speech deepfake detection. Great to see such an active and engaged research group!

I had a great time at The APSIPA ASC in Shangri-la, Singapore. It was a proud moment seeing two of our students (Mr. Nopparut Li and Ms. Junia Denawati) present their work. I was also honored to serve as a Session Chair for the Signal and Information Processing session.

Just wrapped up a great experience at The IEEE Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics (WASPAA) 2025 in Granlibakken Tahoe, CA! I presented our paper, "Modeling Multi-Level Hearing Loss for Speech Intelligibility Prediction." The conference was fantastic—the single-session format made it easy to learn a lot and connect with everyone.

I’m happy to share that I've been promoted to a new position as Senior Lecturer! This new role is a significant milestone that brings the exciting responsibility of leading my own research laboratory and mentoring master's students.

We had a graduation ceremony for two master students from Okada laboratory (Mr. Yutong Wang and Ms. Tran Anh Duc) and two of my co-advise master students from Unoki laboratory (Ms. Aulia Adila and Mr. Nopparut Li). Congratulations and best wishes for your next journey!

Our papers Phoneme-Specific Challenges to Intelligibility in Hearing Impairment Under Noisy Condition and Study on Signal Processing Techniques in Protecting Voice Personae Against Speech Synthesis Systems have been accepted for publication in the 17th Asia Pacific Signal and Information Processing Association Annual Summit and Conference (APSIPA 2025).

We had a productive time at the 6th Clarity Workshop on Improving Speech-in-Noise for Hearing Devices (Clarity-2025) in TU Delft, The Netherlands. We were excited to present our papers through both poster and oral presentations, sharing our work in improving speech intelligibility prediction for hearing devices. Our team also participated in the 3rd Clarity Prediction Challenge (CPC3), where we were proud to secure the 4th rank. It was inspiring to see so many innovative ideas from other participants on how to advance intelligibility prediction for hearing aid development. The talks on hearing aid speech enhancement were also incredibly insightful.

I had a great experience attending the Interspeech 2025 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. It was a privilege to engage with the latest research and network with so many talented people in the field. I'm leaving inspired and ready to apply what I've learned.

I'm incredibly proud to announce that my co-advised students, Anh Tuc Tran and Yutong Wang, have successfully defended their master's theses. A huge congratulations to you both!

I had a great experience attending the 5th Symposium on Security and Privacy in Speech Communication (ISCA SPSC Symposium) at TU Delft. The talks were insightful, especially the keynote on Biosignal-based Authentication for Trustworthy Communication. I enjoyed the sessions and the opportunity to connect with fellow researchers in the field.

A huge congratulations to my co-advised students from Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), Edia Zaki Naufal Ilman and Louis Caesa Kesuma, for successfully defending their bachelor's theses! I'm grateful for the opportunity to have co-advised them alongside Dr. Dessi Puji Lestari.

Our paper Multimodal Classification of Co-speech Gesture Pragmatical function in Storytelling has been accepted for publication in the 13th International Conference on Human-Agent Interaction (HAI 2025).

Proud to announce that my co-advised students, Aulia Adila and Nopparut Li, have successfully defended their master's theses. A huge congratulations to both of them from the Unoki Lab!

Our papers Integrating Linguistic and Acoustic Cues for Machine Learning-Based Speech Intelligibility Prediction in Hearing Impairment has been accepted for poster presentation and Lightweight Speech Intelligibility Prediction with Spectro-Temporal Modulation for Hearing-Impaired Listeners has been accepted for oral presentation in the 6th Clarity Workshop on Improving Speech-in-Noise for Hearing Devices (Clarity-2025)

Our paper Modeling Multi-Level Hearing Loss for Speech Intelligibility Prediction has been accepted for publication in the IEEE Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics (WASPAA 2025).

We presented our paper titled Robust Multilingual Audio Deepfake Detection Through Hybrid Modeling at the 13th ACM Workshop on Information Hiding and Multimedia Security. Our team took on the SAFE:Synthetic Audio Forensics Evaluation Challenge. We secured first place in the laundered audio detection task (Task 3) and landed in the top 5 for both generated audio (Task 1) and processed audio (Task 2). We're proud of our contribution to this highly competitive challenge.

A press release has been issued announcing our paper accepted in Computers and Education: Artificial Intelligence.

Our paper Robust Multilingual Audio Deepfake Detection Through Hybrid Modeling has been accepted for publication in the 13th ACM Workshop on Information Hiding and Multimedia Security.
