DAFx17 Call for Papers (Edinburgh, UK)

Dear Audio researchers,

[Apologies for any cross-postings.]

We are pleased to announce that the 20th International Conference on Digital Audio Effects (DAFx17) will be held at the University of Edinburgh in Edinburgh, UK, on September 5–9 2017.

DAFx17 is organised by the Acoustics and Audio Group, which is a university-wide research group at the University of Edinburgh including staff members from the Edinburgh College of Art, the School of Engineering, and the School of Physics and Astronomy.

The conference website is at: http://www.dafx17.eca.ed.ac.uk

The conference will be hosted at university facilities and will feature oral and poster presentations of accepted papers, keynote addresses, tutorials and demonstrations, and a social program.

This annual conference is a coming together of those working across the globe in research relating to digital audio processing for music and speech, sound art, acoustics and related applications. We would like to invite submissions of papers for presentation at DAFx17 within the following general areas:

Capture and analysis
Representation, transformation and modelling
Transmission and resynthesis
Effects and manipulation
Perception, psychoacoustics and evaluation
Spatial sound analysis, coding and synthesis
Source separation
Sound synthesis, composition and sonification
Hardware and software design

At DAFx17 we especially encourage submissions addressing:

3D audio techniques and spatial audio
Physical modelling, virtual acoustic and analogue models

Prospective authors are invited to submit full-length papers, eight pages maximum, for both oral and poster presentations, before March 31st, 2017.

Submitted papers must be camera-ready and conform to format specified in the templates and the instructions available at the DAFx17 website. All submissions are subject to peer review. Acceptance may be conditional upon changes being made to the paper as directed by reviewers. Final versions of the accepted contributions will be made freely accessible on the conference website after the conference closure, and printed conference proceedings will be available on demand.

The proceedings will be submitted to ISI and Scopus indexing services. Best papers will be invited for submission to the Journal of the Audio Engineering Society.

A PDF of the call for papers is also attached to this email.
