Hi, I'm Candy! I am an assistant professor at School of Information Science, Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST). My primary research interests are speech signal processing, machine learning, and social signal processing (SSP). My Ph.D. thesis focuses on privacy preservation and secure speech communication. In addition to primary research, I also carried out a research project on personality traits and communication skills modeling with Prof. Shogo Okada. I obtained my Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in Information Science, JAIST, advised by Prof. Masashi Unoki.
Research interests: speech information hiding, voice privacy, social signal processing, and machine learning.

Our papers were presented in The 18th International Joint Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing (iSAI-NLP 2023).
I participated in the Joint Workshop of VoicePersonae and ASVspoof 2023.
I am truly honored to have been given the opportunity to deliver a lecture on Voice Biometrics and Secure Speech Communication in the IF4071 Speech Processing course at the School of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Indonesia.
I had the privilege of presenting on 'Advancements in Speech Signal Processing for Security and Voice Privacy Protection' at the Speech and Hearing Research Group (SpandH) and CDT seminar held in the Ada Lovelace Room, Regent Court, University of Sheffield. Despite the briefness of my research visit, I gained valuable insights and knowledge, thanks to the guidance of Prof. Jon Barker and the welcoming atmosphere provided by my colleagues at the SpandH laboratory.
Grateful to have had the opportunity to visit Prof. Trevor Cox at the University of Salford, Manchester, UK. He generously guided us through a laboratory tour, providing explanations of the various experiment rooms within the Acoustic and Audio Engineering department.
Our paper ThaiSpoof: A Database for Spoof Detection in Thai Language has been accepted for presentation at The 18th International Joint Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing and The International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things (iSAI-NLP 2023).
Our paper Spoof Detection using Voice Contribution on LFCC features and ResNet-34 has been accepted for presentation at The 18th International Joint Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing and The International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things (iSAI-NLP 2023).
