Rubén San-Segundo received his MSEE degree from
Technical University of Madrid in 1997, and Ph.D. degrees from the same
university in 2002 (with highest distinction). From 1997 through 2001, Rubén
was supported under a Education Ministry Grand. While a member of the Speech Technology Group (GTH), his research included: speech
recognition of spelled words, confidence measures estimation for speech
recognition and understanding, and dialogue design for speech applications.
During 1999 and 2000, Ruben did two
summer stays in The Center of Spoken
Language Research (CSLR) at the University of Colorado (Boulder), as visiting student. During these
stays, he worked in confidence measures at the CU
Communicator System.
From Sep. 2001 through Feb. 2003,
Rubén worked at the Speech Technology Group of the Telefónica
I+D. During this period, he worked in confidence estimation for speech
recognition, acoustic modelling of speech, and he was involved in the design of
several services considering these technologies. Ruben has collaborated in the
definition of proposals for new research projects.
From Mar, 2003 through Mar. 2004,
Rubén worked at the Department of Electronic
Systems and Control at the EUITT of UPM. Currently, Rubén is associate professor at
the department of Electronic Engineering at ETSIT
of UPM and he is member of the Speech Technology Group (GTH) at the ETSIT.
Rubén has been the Coordinator of
the Spanish Network on Speech Technologies (www.rthabla.es).
Rubén has been vice-chair of the Special Interest Group of ISCA on Iberian
Languages (http://www.il-sig.org/). Rubén
has been the Principal Investigator of the project: “Speech in to Sign Language
Translation” (www.traduccionvozlse.es).
