Zeyu Jin

Senior Research Scientist

San Francisco

Zeyu is a senior research scientist at Adobe Research in San Francisco. His research area is in deep generative models for speech, on topics such as studio-quality speech enhancement, speech quality assessment and personalized voice generation. He is also interested in HCI for audio applications and music generation.

He received a Ph.D. degree in computer science from Princeton University adviced by Adam Finkelstein and M.S in music technology in Carnegie Mellon University. Between 2015 and 2017, he interned at Adobe for three times and presented his primary research project – VoCo – at Adobe MAX Sneaks (link to video) in 2016.
