Computer Speech and Language Special issue on State-of-the-art Handcrafted Feature Extraction for Speech and Voice Analysis
Aims and Scope For over ten years, the scientific community has been witnessing a permanent rise in the number of modern feature-learning approaches for speech and voice analysis. Although those strategies have been placed at the forefront of current artificial intelligence research, uninterpretable models and high computational costs characterise their main drawbacks. Thus, the intention of this special issue is to attract the attention to the fact that, in many problems, handcrafted extraction may still provide prominent solutions with low computational costs and easy-to-interpret features. Topics of Interest The particular topics of interest are those focusing on handcrafted feature extraction approaches for speech and voice analysis. Applications include, but are not necessarily limited to: • text-dependent, text-prompted and text-independent speaker identification and verification • spoken word, limited-vocabulary and large-vocabulary speech recognition • speech emotion identification • speech characterisation • voice activity detection • idiom recognition • speech pathology detection • emerging applications, including coronavirus detection based on speech Before submission, prospective authors should carefully read over the journal author guidelines before submitting the electronic copy of their complete manuscripts through the journal online submission system. Please choose 'VSI:SHFESVA' for the 'article type” during submission. Important Dates • submission deadline: July 30, 2020 • results from the first round of reviews: September 30, 2020 • revised papers due: October 15, 2020 • results from the second round of reviews: November 30, 2020 • re-revised papers due: December 30, 2020 • final decisions: January 30, 2021 Guest-editors Prof. (Dr.) Rodrigo Capobianco Guido (guido@ieee.org), São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil
Prof. (Dr.) Hemant A. Patil ( ), Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology (DA-IICT), Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India.
