The second workshop on Psycholinguistic Approaches to Speech Recognition
in Adverse Conditions (PASRAC) will be held in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
The workshop is a follow-up on the first workshop organised in Bristol in
March 2010.

The aim of the two-day workshop is to bring together scientists from
different disciplines, including psychology, linguistics, computer
science, neuroscience, and cognitive science, working on the topic of
speech recognition in adverse conditions.

Basic themes will be, but are not limited to:
- Sensory degradation
    * Extrinsic: Noise and other distortions, such as atypical speech,
accented speech, conversational speech
    * Intrinsic: Hearing impairments and cochlear implants
- Incomplete knowledge (L1-L2, adults-children)
- Limited processing resources (dual tasking, divided attention, etc).

We are inviting abstracts (maximum length is 500 words, excluding
references) for oral or poster presentations.
