Subject: [AUDITORY] CFP: 6th International Workshop on Speech Processing in Everyday Environments (CHiME 2020) From: Jon Barker <j.p.barker@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 18 Dec 2019 16:32:53 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--------------------------------------------- CHiME 2020 6th International Workshop on Speech Processing in Everyday Environments Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, May 4, 2020 http://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/chime_workshop/chime2020 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT THE WORKSHOP This one-day workshop will bring together researchers from the fields of speech enhancement, speech and speaker recognition, computational hearing, and machine learning to discuss the robustness of speech processing in everyday environments. As a focus for discussion, the workshop will host the CHiME-6 Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge. To find out more about the challenge, see http://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/chime_challenge/chime6. PAPER SUBMISSION Relevant research topics include (but are not limited to): - training schemes: data simulation and augmentation, semi-supervised train= ing, - speaker identification and diarization, - speaker localization and beamforming, - single- or multi-microphone enhancement and separation, - robust features and feature transforms, - robust acoustic and language modeling, - traditional or end-to-end 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-6 dataset or on other datasets are equally welcome.
