Profile
Dr. Jiang discovered her interest in music informatics during her college years in Beijing, which led her to graduate studies at Indiana University Bloomington, where she also discovered a passion for teaching. Her current research focuses on building software to analyze music-related data, especially performance data. Her latest project is aimed at visualizing technical aspects of an instrumental performance to provide multifaceted feedback to the player. Applications such as this can also assist music performance education by revealing important patterns in collected performance data, contribute to large-scale corpus analysis, and shed new light on musical intelligence.
