Dale Joachim

Visiting Professor 2006-2008 Technical staff, MIT Lincoln Laboratory
Through our scientific and technological genius, we've made of this world a neighborhood. And now through our moral and ethical commitment, we must make of it a brotherhood.
— Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Background

Dale Joachim is an electrical engineer and assistant professor at Tulane University. Joachim earned a BSET from Andrews University and completed coursework towards an MBA at Western Michigan University. He went on to earn his MS and PhD in electrical engineering from Michigan State University.

Interests

Joachim’s research on acoustic sensor systems aims to significantly improve both wildlife monitoring and musical understanding. At Tulane, he teaches courses in computer architecture, digital logic and speech processing, and instituted Tulane’s Speech and Sound Processing Laboratory for research on audio signature detection, identification and localization. 

As a MLK visiting professor, he studied communication among birds, applying sensor and signal processing methods to nature conservancy. This research extended to music: by studying the cognitive processes involved in accurately recognizing specific chords within musical compositions, Joachim aimed to develop intelligent systems to automate musical chord transcription.
