Dear Speech Researcher,
This is an announcement for the 2018 Speech Processing Courses in
Crete (SPCC18):
SPCC2018
http://spcc.csd.uoc.gr/
July 23-27 2018, Heraklion, Crete,
Greece
on the latest developments of the speech synthesis engines towards
flexible and intelligible end-to-end speech synthesis systems.
This year we will
enhance and
strongly support the
hands-on sessions to provide to the participants a good
balance between theory and practice. Morning sessions will include
lectures on theory while all afternoon sessions will be dedicated
solely to the hands-on sessions.
We have put together an excellent program (

Speech Representations with potential applications to
intelligibility and cognitive effort measurements?
