Draft:Daniel Sáez Trigueros

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniel Sáez Trigueros (December 19, 1990 – August 12, 2024) was a Spanish researcher known for his contributions to the fields of artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, text-to-speech synthesis, and generative models.

In 2019, Daniel gained his PhD on artificial intelligence by the University of Hertfordshire under the supervision of Dr Margaret Hartnett. Between 2016 and 2024 he co-authored 18 papers [1][2], mainly focused on face recognition while working for GB Group (2016-2019) and text-to-speech synthesis while working for Amazon (2019-2024)[3].

One of Daniel's most notable contributions was the study on the evolution of face recognition techniques where he contrasted older approaches, such as geometry-based and feature-based methods, with the modern dominance of deep neural networks, highlighting the superior accuracy and performance made possible by large datasets.[4]

He also co-authored CopyCat, a system for transferring prosody in text-to-speech synthesis without losing the identity of the target speaker.[5]
