The Centre of Language and Speech Technology (CLST) at Radboud University N= ijmegen has a vacancy for a post-doctoral speech technology researcher. BLI= SS [http://hstrik.ruhosting.nl/bliss/] combines research on how using Big D= ata and information extraction can make a substantial contribution to self-= management and improvement of the individual health situation. In this proj= ect we will build a smart, personalized, spoken dialogue system (SDS) suppo= rting self-management that is able to meaningfully communicate with people = about issues regarding their personal health, well-being and happiness usin= g Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). For this SDS we need to personalise t= he ASR component to adapt to speaker variation and to topic changes in dial= ogue. As a researcher you will combine knowledge of Deep Neural Networks (D= NNs, Kaldi) based ASR with experience in SDS. .
