Seems like a good opportunity to share this [0]
Problem: We don't really know what "realistic" quality means. Is it
the timbre? Is it the spectral dynamics? Is it a set of recognisable
behaviours? Does playing versus only listening to a simulated
instrument make a difference to the perception of "realism"? Sure we
can do naive A-B tests on audio, but they turn out to show unexpected
or "wrong" results.
Not that I'd encourage anyone to get involved in academia in its
current degenerate state, but for someone really passionate about this
I'd say this postdoc Diemo is heading at IRCAM looks like one of the
more fun, interesting and challenging projects around right now. FWIW
there's a similar programme running at Edinburgh with Stefan Bilbao
and Rod Selfridge testing quality of PDE synthesis and AI discovery of
parametric control.
