SANE 2013, a one-day event gathering researchers and students in speech
and audio from the Northeast of the American continent, will be held on
Thursday October 24, 2013 at Columbia University, in New York City.
A follow-up to the event held in October 2012 at MERL in Cambridge, MA,
this year's SANE will be held directly following IEEE WASPAA (which will
occur on October 20-23 in New Paltz, NY).
WASPAA attendees are welcome and encouraged to attend SANE.
SANE 2013 will feature invited speakers both from the Northeast and from
the international community. It will also feature a lively poster session during
lunch time, open to both students and researchers.
