Bio

Dr. Justin D. Mathew is an Associate Teaching Professor of Music Technology at North Carolina State University with academic and industry experience. He received his doctorate in Computer Science at University of Paris-Saclay, his Masters in Music Technology at New York University, and his Bachelor’s in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Rochester. Prior to North Carolina State University, he held positions in research and development in industry and served as an Adjunct Lecturer in the music engineering program at University of Miami, Frost School of Music. His past research projects include compressed sensing techniques on spatial acoustics of instruments, method of music information retrieval for automatic transitions, and design methodologies for developing new audio mixing and production software. He is an inventor on patents about near-field spatial audio rendering, continuous real-time acoustic mapping, real-time sound and haptics synthesis, and machine learning systems for sound enhancements. His current research studies the effects of spatial audio and auditory perception in complex sonic environments and creative music software. He has been a member of the Audio Engineering Society, Acoustic Society of America, IEEE, and other academic organizations. In Miami, he taught undergraduates on the fundamentals of digital music signal processing centering on audio and acoustic algorithms, and he taught graduate students on advanced signal processing for building digital audio effect plugins. In addition, he advised several graduate students on their thesis about non-linear modeling, loudspeaker and microphone processing, and applied machine learning techniques. In Raleigh, he helps lead the Music Technology program and focuses his teaching on the core skills required to design, develop, and test creative tools for musicians, engineers, and producers.
