    NEURAL NETWORK INTERN FOR SPEECH RECOGNITION

    Motorola's Chicago Corporate Research Laboratories is currently seeking a Ph.D. student to join the Speech Synthesis and Machine Learning Group as an intern in its Speech Processing Systems Research Laboratory in Schaumburg, Illinois, for spring 1997. The internship will last at least three months.

    The Speech Synthesis and Machine Learning Group has developed innovative neural network and signal processing technologies for speech synthesis and speech recognition applications. The intern will work on a component of an HMM/neural network hybrid speech recognizer. The duties of the position include applied research, software development, and conducting experiments with speech data sets. Innovation in research, application of technology and a high level of motivation is the standard for all members of the team.

    The individual should be in an advanced stage of a Ph.D. program in EE, CS or a related discipline. The ability to work within a group to quickly implement and evaluate algorithms in a rapid research/development cycle is essential. Strong programming skills in the "C" language and solid knowledge of neural networks are required. Background in any of speech processing, statistical techniques, decision trees, and genetic algorithms is highly desirable.

    Please send text-format resume and cover letter to Orhan Karaali, karaalimot.com. Motorola is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer. We welcome and encourage diversity in our workforce.
