CHiME 2018

5th International Workshop on

Speech Processing in Everyday Environments

Microsoft, Hyderabad, Sep 7, 2018

Submission deadline: Aug 3, 2018

http://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/chime_workshop/

----------------------------------------------

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

CHiME 2018 will bring together researchers from the fields of computational hearing, speech enhancement, acoustic modelling and machine learning to discuss the robustness of speech processing in everyday environments.

As a focus for discussion, the workshop will host the CHiME-5 Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge. To find out more about the challenge, see http://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/chime_challenge/.

PAPER SUBMISSION

Relevant research topics include (but are not limited to):

- training schemes: data augmentation, semi-supervised training,

- speaker localization and beamforming,

- single- or multi-microphone enhancement and separation,

- robust features and feature transforms,

- robust acoustic and language modeling,

- robust speech recognition,

- robust speaker and language recognition,

- robust paralinguistics,

- cross-environment or cross-dataset performance analysis,

- environmental background noise modelling.

Papers reporting evaluation results on the CHiME-5 dataset or on other datasets are both welcome.

IMPORTANT DATES

3rd Aug, 2018 Extended abstract submission (2 pages)
