We are happy to inform you that Winter School on Speech and Audio Processing (WISSAP-2015) is being organized by Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology (DA-IICT), Gandhinagar during January 04-07, 2015 as a part of ISCA SIG-ILSP (SIG on Indian Language Speech Processing) activities.

The topic of this year WiSSAP is ‘Production-Perception Based New Models of Speech Analysis,’ the latest topic of research involving both speech production and perception. With the advent of new modalities of acquiring speech production/perception data, it is now possible to answer, in a principled way, the insights about these links and develop new engineering models for speech analysis and processing. WiSSAP 2015 would highlight latest data acquisition, multi-modal analysis, representation and potential of these new approaches to speech modeling. We expect researchers from IISc/IITs/NITs/DA-IICT/IIITs and other institutions in the country, industry researchers working in speech/audio area and research scholars to participate at the winter school.  .

As in the past, WiSSAP 2015 will have three international experts to present recent developments in their respective research topics.  The experts chosen are:  Prof. Shrikanth S. Narayanan of University of Southern California, USA, Prof. Shihab Shamma of University of Maryland, USA) and Prof. Hynek Hermansky (Johns Hopkins University, USA). Three invited experts from India will conduct tutorials on the first day to expose the participants to advanced research. I am also attaching the poster for call for participation.
