PROFILE

Yucong Chen

Worked on the espressif/esp-dl repository, developing and optimizing a speaker verification system for embedded platforms. Delivered features such as audio preprocessing, similarity scoring, and 16-bit PCM input support, while refactoring code for maintainability and performance. Addressed model optimization by removing unnecessary layers and improving quantization, resulting in faster inference and reduced resource usage. Fixed critical bugs in MFCC and filter bank feature extraction, aligning with Kaldi conventions to enhance accuracy and reliability. Enhanced error handling and defensive programming to prevent crashes during model execution. Utilized C++, CMake, and ESP-IDF, applying expertise in audio processing, machine learning, and embedded systems.
