INTRODUCTION
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to cordially invite you to participate in the upcoming ISCA Workshop on Non-Linear Speech Processing (NOLISP2013), which will be held at the University of Mons, Belgium, on the following dates: June 19-21, 2013. The workshop will cover all topics which come under the area of digital speech processing and its applications, with an emphasis on non-linear techniques. In accordance with the spirit of the ISCA workshops, the upcoming workshop will focus on research and results, give information on tools and welcome prototype demonstrations of potential future applications.
We are glad to inform you that the proceedings of the workshop will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, and that the workshop will be followed by a special issue in the Computer Speech and Language journal.
We are also happy to welcome four very interesting invited speakers who will give a talk in their expertise area: Prof. Steve Renals, Prof. Christophe d’Alessandro, Prof. Björn Schuller, and Prof. Yannis Stylianou.
The workshop is being organized by Dr. Thomas Drugman and Prof. Thierry Dutoit, from the University of Mons.
We look forward to your participation!
WORKSHOP THEMES
The Non-Linear Speech Processing (NOLISP) workshop is a biennial international workshop aiming at presenting and discussing new ideas, techniques and results related to alternative approaches in speech processing. New and innovative approaches and their applications are welcome to participate in this workshop.
Contributions are expected in (though not restricted to) the following domains: •Non-Linear Approximation and Estimation •Non-Linear Oscillators and Predictors •Higher-Order Statistics •Independent Component Analysis •Nearest Neighbours •Neural Networks •Decision Trees •Non-Parametric Models •Dynamics of Non-Linear Systems •Fractal Methods •Chaos Modeling •Non-Linear Differential Equations
All fields of speech processing are targeted by the workshop, namely: •Speech Production •Speech Analysis and Modeling •Speech Coding •Speech Synthesis •Speech Recognition •Speaker Identification / Verification •Speech Enhancement / Separation •Speech Perception •Others

We look forward to welcoming you in Lyon, France. In the meantime, a new version of the conference website has been launched to provide you with extended information to prepare your participation to the event next August: http://www.interspeech2013.org As of today, prospective authors are formally invited to prepare their paper submissions. The Interspeech conferences reflect the dynamism of our scientific community, which has steadily strengthened over the years. We are looking forward to receiving, from all areas of the world, an abundant flow of high-quality contributions on the wide range of topics covered by the conference. Frédéric Bimbot (chair), Cécile Fougeron (co-chair), François Pellegrino (co-chair) --- Important Dates and Links --- Calls for Satellite Workshops, Tutorials and Special Sessions are now closed Call for Papers Submission Deadline: March 18, 2013 Notification of acceptance : May 22, 2013 Camera-ready paper : May 29, 2013 List of conference areas : http://dev.europa-organisation.com/2013/interspeech/content/conference-areas Instruction for authors : http://dev.europa-organisation.com/2013/interspeech/content/paper-submission-procedure Download the Author's kit: http://dev.europa-organisation.com/2013/interspeech/sites/default/files/IS2013_paperkit.zip Call for Show & Tell and Other Special Events Submission Deadline: April 19, 2013 Conference Dates: 25-29 August 2013 --- General Information --- Paper format From this year on, a new paper format will be used: 4 pages of text plus one page (maximum) for references only. This will facilitate the sometimes difficult arbitration between work description and citation coverage. Paper submission procedure Authors will be asked to determine to which topic(s) their contributions relates (see list of areas and topics on the website) and/or if they wish to contribute to a special session (see list below). Under the coordination of the Technical Programme Chairs (Lori Lamel and Pascal Perrier) and with the supervision of a pool of 28 area chairs, each paper proposal will be reviewed by at least three specialists of the area to which it belongs. Papers must be submitted via the on-line paper submission system, accessible through the conference website. The deadline for submitting a paper is March 18th, 2013. Registration fees The definitive fees have not been fixed yet, but our target is to be within the range of previous Interspeech editions (that is 520 € in Florence, 470 € in Portland, for ISCA member, full-delegate early registration). The fees will be announced about a week before the paper submission deadline. Student/retired participants Students will benefit from reduced rates (-50% or more) and will be offered the possibility to opt for a student accommodation package at an attractive cost (typically, in the range of 200-250 € for 5 nights). A significant number of grants will be offered, to further reduce the financial burden for student (or retired) attendees, when needed. Keep posted for more info. --- Special sessions proposal --- Special sessions at Interspeech are intended to bring together researchers in relevant fields of interest, either on a targeted topic, or beyond the traditional scope of the conference. For Interspeech 2013, eleven proposals of special sessions are currently pending. Prospective authors are offered the option to relate their paper proposal to one of these sessions. All papers relating to a special session will follow the regular reviewing process, by anonymous and independent reviewers. Only special sessions with a sufficient number of accepted papers will ultimately be scheduled in the final program. All other accepted papers will be presented in an adequate regular session. To consult the list of special session proposals : http://dev.europa-organisation.com/2013/interspeech/content/special-sessions The final list of special sessions will be determined and published after the review process, on May 22, 2013. --- Information about satellite workshops --- We are happy to announce that over a dozen satellite workshops are organized before or after the Interspeech conference. This is an opportunity to participate to specific scientific events related to current 'hot topics' in speech science. These workshops take place in locations with easy access to/from Lyon (Grenoble, Paris, Aix-en-Provence, Barcelona and more…). More information on satellite workshops can be found on the Interspeech web site : http://dev.europa-organisation.com/2013/interspeech/content/satellite-workshops --- Become a sponsor of the conference --- If you want to become a sponsor or an exhibitor at the conference : http://dev.europa-organisation.com/2013/interspeech/content/become-partner-interspeech-2013 --- Contacts --- Conference Chairs : conference-chairs@interspeech2013.org Technical Programme Chairs : technical-chairs@interspeech2013.org Organizers : organizers@interspeech2013.org Webmaster : webmaster@interspeech2013.org
