ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

CHiME 2016 will bring together researchers from the fields of computational hearing,
speech enhancement, acoustic modelling and machine learning to discuss the robustness of
speech processing in everyday environments.

As a focus for discussion, the workshop will host the CHiME-4 Speech Separation and
Recognition Challenge. To find out more about the challenge, see
http://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/chime_challenge/.

Relevant research topics include (but are not limited to):
- training schemes: data augmentation, semi-supervised training,
- speaker localization and beamforming,
- single- or multi-microphone enhancement and separation,
- robust features and feature transforms,
- robust acoustic and language modeling,
- robust speech recognition,
- robust speaker and language recognition,
- robust paralinguistics,
- cross-environment or cross-dataset performance analysis,
