Amergint Technologies
Tyler Jones has worked as a Systems Engineer at AMERGINT Technologies since July 2018. Prior to that, in 2017, they participated in the Google Summer of Code as a self-employed individual. During this time, they improved the encoding quality and speed of FFmpeg's native Vorbis encoder by redesigning major components and implementing a new psychoacoustic model. Tyler also built a custom psychoacoustical model capable of detecting transient signals and dynamically switching encoding modes, and implemented noise normalization and rewrote residue encoding to minimize quantization error.
Tyler Jones completed their education at Colorado Mesa University from 2016 to 2018, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science. Prior to that, they attended the Colorado School of Mines from 2015 to 2016, where they pursued studies in Chemical Engineering, but did not obtain a degree.
