Call for Proposals - SLT 2020
January 2019
Jason Williams, Kyu Jeong Han, Raul Fernandez, Kai Yu 2019 IEEE SLTC Workshop Sub-Committee Following on the success of the bi-annual SLT workshop over the past decade, the IEEE Speech and Language Technical Committee invites proposals to host the 2020 IEEE Workshop on Spoken Language Technology (SLT 2020). Past SLT workshops have fostered a collegiate atmosphere through a thoughtful selection of venues, thus offering a unique opportunity for researchers to interact and learn. The proposal should include the information outlined below.
The deadline for proposals is Friday, June 7, 2019. Send proposals and questions to the workshop sub-committee: Jason Williams (jdw@alumni.princeton.edu), Kyu Jeong Han (kyuhan215@gmail.com), Raul Fernandez (fernanra@us.ibm.com), and Kai Yu (kai.yu@sjtu.edu.cn). In June, the IEEE SLTC will review proposals, and selection results are expected by July 12, 2019. If you are interested in submitting a proposal, we encourage you to contact the workshop sub-committee in advance of submitting a proposal. They can provide an example of a past successful proposal and example budget. Further, proposers who make contact before Friday 26 April 2019 may be invited to briefly present in-person at the annual IEEE SLTC meeting at ICASSP 2019, 12-17 May 2019, in Brighton, England, to obtain feedback from the SLTC (https://2019.ieeeicassp.org). Presentations should be reasonably specific but need not be complete. Note that the SLTC does not have funding available for travel to ICASSP. The organizers of the SLT workshop do not have to be SLTC members, and we encourage submissions from all potential organizers. IEEE SLTC members are welcome to participate on proposals, and the organizing committees of past SLT events have included many SLTC members. To maintain fairness of selection, SLTC members who are affiliated with an SLT 2020 proposal will not participate in the SLT 2020 selection vote. Further, the members of the workshops sub-committee may not be affiliated with any SLT 2020 proposal. Please feel free to distribute this call for proposals far and wide, and invite members of the speech and language community at large to submit a proposal to organize the next SLT workshop.
