Professor
Professor Georgios Kouroupetroglou holds a B.Sc. in Physics and a Ph.D. in Informatics. He is member of the academic staff Department of Informatics, University of Athens, leader of the Speech and Accessibility Laboratory and head of the e-Accessibility Unit for Students with Disabilities. His current research interests focuses on the area of Computer Accessibility and Voice User Interfaces, as a part of the major domain of Human-Computer Interaction, with emphasis in: Accessible Computing, Spoken Dialogue Human Computer Interaction, Usability, VoiceWeb, Voice Agents, Voice Processing (analysis and synthesis of speech and singing), Computer Mediated Interpersonal Communication, Information Systems/Services and Assistive Technologies for Disabled and Elderly People, Music Computing; Singing Voice Analysis, Virtual Musical Istruments, and Byzantine Chanting Analysis and Synthesis, Gesture-based User Interfaces, and Information Technologies for Interactive Learning. He has actively participated in a numerous international and national research projects: in 32 projects he was the scientific responsible/ coordinator and in other 17 projects he was member of the scientific team. He has been reviewer / evaluator and member of working groups/ technical panels of various European Union's projects/ programs including the Information Society Technologies program.
