Subject: [AUDITORY] Call for abstracts for special session proposal at ICASSP - Aug 23 deadline From: Laurie Heller <hellerl@xxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2022 16:07:52 -0400--Apple-Mail=_4C0C3807-6042-4035-993A-5C3230F96367 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 [Apologies for cross-posting.] If you have an interest in both automatic and human sound/scene = recognition, please read this invitation.=20 We are proposing a special session for the next IEEE International = Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP) from June = 4-9, 2023. The proposed special session will focus on the synergy between machine = and human approaches to sound/scenes. One motivation is to inject domain = knowledge from humans into Machine Learning. This encompasses many = areas. For example, work in auditory physiology, psychoacoustics, = and/or cognition could be applied to benefit automatic recognition, = signal processing, metrics, or active/multimodal learning. Conversely, = presenters could utilize machine learning, computational scene analysis, = etc. to address issues in human auditory processing (e.g. understanding = cognition, neural predictions, improving HRTFs).=20 If you=E2=80=99d like to present at this special session, please email a = draft abstract (approx. 200 words) to Dr. Benjamin Elizalde = (benjaminm@xxxxxxxx <mailto:benjaminm@xxxxxxxx>) by 5pm ET on = Tuesday, August 23rd. Please also indicate if you are interested in = helping to organize the session. Our Special Session proposal is due = next week; if the session is approved, your paper would be submitted for = peer review on Oct 19th.
