About Me

You live only once, if you do it right once is enough.

Greetings!
 
Ankit is a Deep Learning Scientist at ReviveMed. ReviveMed performs AI-driven Drug Discovery to find novel therapeutics for metabolic diseases. We leverage tens of thousands of metabolomic datapoints to discover novel biology and impactful therapeutics.

Ankit is fascinated by the applications of Multimedia Analysis and its growing importance in today’s world where more than 90 percent of data consumed is Multimedia. To learn more about the field, he graduated with a Masters in Language Technologies at School of Computer Science in Carnegie Mellon University. During the masters program, Ankit was advised by Prof. Alexander Hauptmann in the Language Technologies Institute. His research interests lie in the areas of machine learning and signal processing with a focus on audio and multimedia analysis. His work on deciphering guntype information using acoustic analysis of gunshot recordings and on Deep Intermodal Video analytics to recognize activities in large scale surveilliance videos was well appreciated.

Previously, he worked as a verification engineer at ARM, a leading semiconductor IP provider. He is familiar with ARM protocols like AMBA, AXI, CPU specifications, ARM architecture and power architecture. At ARM, his role was related to designing inhouse verification tools for simultaneous verification of sub-systems. These enhanced the scalability of other in-house tools and further ensured less rework across projects, thereby improving the throughput of our team’s deliverables. He designed a power controller used across various projects at ARM. Due to efficient deliverables in workplace, his supervisors gave him the responsibility to deliver the first chip-to-chip subsystem verification on ARM platform which was executed successfully. Ankit was consecutively rated amongst the top 5% engineers globally within ARM for two years.

Prior to that, he graduated with a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Electronics and Communication (EC) from National Institute of Technology Karnataka (NITK), Surathkal.

SOX - Sound eXchange - How to use SOX for audio processing tasks in research.

This article is part of the on-going Software for Geeks series. SoX stands for So und e X change. SoX is a cross-platform command line audio utility tool that works on Linux, Windows and MacOS. It is very helpful in the following areas while dealing with audio and music files. Audio File Converter Editing audio files Changing audio attributes Adding audio effects Plus lot of advanced sound manipulation features In general, audio data is described by following four characteristics: Rate – The sample rate is in samples per second. For example, 44100/8000 Data size – The precision the data is stored in.  For example, 8/16 bits Data encoding – What encoding the data type uses. For example, u-law,a-law Channels – How many channels are contained in the audio data.  For example, Stereo 2 channels SoX supports over 20 audio file formats. To get the list of all supported formats, execute sox -h from the command line. One of the major benefits of a command-line audio/mu

Sox of Silence - Original post - http://digitalcardboard.com/blog/2009/08/25/the-sox-of-silence/

The SoX of Silence SoX is, by their own definition,  the Swiss Army knife of audio manipulation. And no doubt it’s full of fun with slicing and dicing and playback and recording and filtering and effects capabilities. But SoX is a command line tool, which means obscure syntax and parameters in order to get things done. I’ve been trying off and on for months to try to understand the  silence  filter from within SoX, which allows one to remove silence from the beginning, middle, or end of the audio. Sounds, simple, doesn’t it?  Well, it should be. Below is the  man page for the  silence  filter : silence  [-l] above-periods [duration threshold[d|%] [below-periods duration threshold[d|%]] Removes silence from the beginning, middle, or end of the audio. Silence is anything below a specified threshold. The above-periods value is used to indicate if audio should be trimmed at the beginning of the audio. A value of zero indicates no silence should be trimmed from the beg

How to get video or audio duration of a file using ffmpeg?

Today we will learn How to get the duration of a file using ffmpeg 1. Format Container Duration - [This works for both Video and Audio Files - better to report numbers using this command] ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration \ -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 input.mp4     2. Video Stream Duration - [This works only for Videos]   ffprobe -v error -select_streams v:0 -show_entries stream=duration \ -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 input.mp4     Content author - https://superuser.com/questions/650291/how-to-get-video-duration-in-seconds
