Bio
Konrad Kowalczyk received the B.Eng. and M.Sc. degrees in electronics and telecommunications from AGH University of Science and Technology, Krakow, Poland, in 2005, the Ph.D. degree in electronics from the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Queen’s University, Belfast, U.K., in 2009, and the Habilitation (D.Sc.) degree in information and communication technology (ICT) from AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow, in 2020. During his doctoral studies on numerical modelling of room acoustics at Queen’s University, he was associated with the Sonic Arts Research Centre (SARC). He was a Visiting Ph.D. Student at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA), Stanford University, in 2007 and at the Audio Lab, University of York, U.K., in 2008. From 2009 until 2011, he was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Chair of Multimedia Communications and Signal Processing (LMS), University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany, where he worked on acoustic scene analysis using microphone arrays. From 2012 until 2014 he was with Audio and Multimedia Division of Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS and the International Audio Laboratories Erlangen as an Associate Researcher for communication acoustics and spatial audio processing. In 2015 he joined the Faculty of Computer Science, Electronics and Telecommunications, AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow. In 2016 he was a Visiting Researcher at Aalto University, Helsinki, Finland. Since 2020 he holds a position of an Associate Professor and heads AGH’s Signal Processing Group.
As a laureate of the Top 500 Innovators program, he completed postgraduate training in science management and commercialization at the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford, U.K. He was a finalist of the IEEE Best Student Paper Contest at the ICASSP conference held in Hawaii in 2007, a winner of the AES Student Technical Paper Award at the AES convention held in Amsterdam in 2008, and a coauthor of a paper winning the Best Student Paper Award at IWAENC conference held in Antibes, France in 2014. In 2016 and 2019 he received the best paper awards at IEEE SPA conferences held in Poznan. He also received the Stanislaw Staszic Medal for the best graduate of AGH in 2005. From 2016 until 2019 he received a scholarship of the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education (MNiSW) for Distinguished Young Scientists. In 2020 he received the Prime Minister Award for outstanding scientific achievements leading to the habilitation degree in category science and engineering (best habilitation from all technical universities in Poland).
He is an elected member of the Technical Area Committee on Acoustic, Speech and Music Signal Processing of the European Association for Signal Processing (EURASIP), senior member of the IEEE Signal Processing Society, and a member of the International Speech Communication Association (ISCA). He has chaired sessions at the Annual Conf. Int. Speech Communication Assoc. (INTERSPEECH), European Sign. Process. Conf. (EUSIPCO), and IEEE Multimedia and Sign. Process. Works. (IEEE MMSP). He was a Guest Editor for the special issue on “Data-based spatial audio processing” of the EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing.
