Call for Participation | INTERSPEECH 2015

INTERSPEECH is the world’s largest and most comprehensive conference on the science and technology of spoken language processing. INTERSPEECH conferences emphasize interdisciplinary approaches addressing all aspects of speech science and technology, ranging from basic theories to applications.
INTERSPEECH 2015 in Dresden (Germany) will be organized around the theme Speech beyond Speech: Towards a Better Understanding of the Most Important Biosignal, which acknowledges the fact that speech is the most important biosignal humans can produce and perceive. It is evident that not all characteristics of speech are already fully understood. INTERSPEECH 2015 includes contributions that analyze and model speech as a biosignal in a broad understanding, e.g. for extracting information about the speaker, for identifying processes leading to speech production, or for generating speech signals with specific bio-characteristics but also in all other areas of speech science and technology.

Get Involved!
INTERSPEECH brings together scholars, researchers, developers and decision makers from leading institutes and companies around the world. The conference pushes the boundaries of speech science and creates new technological and conceptual configurations.
We welcome all participants willing to share their research and experience. This is your conference and an opportunity to meet in a great location in the heart of Dresden and its beautiful surrounding.
