Subject: [AUDITORY] LVA/ICA 2018, July 2-6: Call for Participation: 14th International Conference on Latent Variable Analysis and Signal Separation From: Mark D Plumbley <0000005fa4625f04-dmarc-request@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 9 May 2018 07:32:35 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>Dear list, We are happy to announce that the program for the 14th International Conference on Latent Variable Analysis and Signal Separation (LVA/ICA 2018) is now available at: http://cvssp.org/events/lva-ica-2018/program/ LVA/ICA 2018 will be the held at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK from July 2-6, 2018, and includes a number of papers related to audio, e.g. on audio source separation. The programme features a wide range of oral and poster presentations on topics related to latent variable analysis and source separation, including Matrix and Tensor Factorizations, Deep Learning and Data-driven Methods, ICA Methods, Nonlinear Mixtures, Sparsity-Related Methods, Bayesian Approaches, Audio Data and Methods, and Biomedical Data and Methods.=20 We are looking forward to inspiring keynote talks from Tuomas Virtanen (Laboratory of Signal Processing, Tampere University of Technology, Finland), Orly Alter (Scientific Computing & Imaging Institute/Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah, USA) and Andrzej Cichocki (Brain Science Institute, Riken, Japan). The conference will also feature special sessions on Structured Tensor=20 Decompositions and Applications, and Advances in Phase Retrieval and=20 Applications, plus the results of the SiSEC 2018 Signal Separation=20 Evaluation Campaign. The conference will be preceded by a 1-day Summer School with tutorials by Evrim Acar (Simula Research Laboratory, Lysaker, Norway) on Tensor Factorizations, Data Fusion & Applications, and Richard Turner (Computational & Biological Learning Lab, University of Cambridge, UK) on Bayesian Inference and Deep Learning, and from Russell Mason, Ryan Chungeun Kim and Dominic Ward on Evaluation of Musical Audio Source Separation. For interested delegates, the conference is followed by an Audio Day, featuring talks, posters and demos on audio-related projects. For information on how to register and accommodation options, see http://cvssp.org/events/lva-ica-2018/registration/=20 Early registration is available until 31 May 2018. We look forward to welcoming you to Surrey!
