Dear colleagues!
We are pleased to announce that the 33rd edition of the Conference on Electronic Speech Signal Processing (ESSV) will take place in early March in Sondeborg, DK. The ESSV conference series spans a wide range of fields that concern the creation, analysis, and (digital) processing of speech signals, with a special focus on applied research, i.e. practical applications and technologies. We therefore ask for contributions (in German or English) on the following topics:
- Speech synthesis and speech generation;
- Speech dialogue systems, also multimodal ones;
- Human-robot and human-computer interaction;
- Quality assessment of spoken language and speech technology;
- Speech recognition and natural language comprehension;
- Nonspeech signals related to speech: Music, biosignals and technical signals;
- Applications in medical, nursing, and rehabilitation technology;
- Cognitive and neural systems;
- Speech technology in industrial and home sectors;
- Measurement, processing and modeling of articulation;
- Phonetic, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic aspects of speech technology;
- Studies and applications of paralinguistics;
- Modeling of speech acquisition processes;
- Acoustic and visual pattern recognition related to speech communication.
Contributions on related topics are also very welcome. We particularly encourage students to submit papers and apply for ESSV's annual ?Best Student Paper Award?, which will be presented on the last day of the conference. In addition, guests from research, industry and public institutions as well as interested students are warmly welcome even without an own conference paper. All accepted papers will be published in a conference volume, which will appear in the series 'Studientexte zur Sprachkommunikation' (TUDpress), as well as in the public online archive of the ESSV, see http://www.essv.de/ .

3-3-4 | (2022-04-30) Bids to host the 2nd TAI conference, to be held in 2023. After the successful 1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI 2021) <www.tai2020.org> held at the University of Southern Denmark in Sønderborg last December, the TAI Standing Committee is calling for bids to host the 2nd TAI conference, to be held in 2023.

3-3-5 | (2022-05-20) 2nd International Seminar on the Foundations of Speech (SEFOS II) 2022 , Sonderborg, DK 2nd International Seminar on the Foundations of Speech (SEFOS II) 2022 Theme: Articulation and Prosody: Between Interface and Integration Date: 20-21 May 2022, Sønderborg, Denmark
The links between articulation and prosody are a subject of growing interest. The growing interest is, among other things, driven by increasingly powerful measurement, analysis and recording techniques, by the discovery of syntagmatic and paradigmatic structures in prosody and the simultaneous undermining of strictly linear-segmental models in articulation, as well as by the rapid rise of speech technology and the associated increasing relevance of emotions, speaking styles, attitudes, social hierarchies, social-role marking, etc. But, how far have we really come in understanding the links between articulation and prosody?
As a satellite meeting to the 11th Speech Prosody, the 2nd International Seminar on the Foundations of Speech (SEFOS II) will be a forum to discuss these questions. Continuing the successful concept of the first SEFOS, SEFOS II shall again be a strongly interdisciplinary event. We therefore cordially invite not only all members of the speech-science (and speech-prosody) communities to take part in SEFOS II, but also interested members from related fields such as general linguistics, medicine, audiology, psychology, rhetoric, pedagogy, language/speech technology, and engineering sciences.
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS --------------------------------
Prof. Dr. Cécile Fougeron Prof. Dr.-Ing. Peter Birkholz
IMPORTANT DATES ------------------------------
Note that SEFOS II has teamed up with the proceedings branch of deGruyter, 'Sciendo', to be able to publish your contributions as widely visible (open access) proceedings papers in journal-article length (max. 15 pages including figures and references; shorter papers are accepted too, of course). The SEFOS II proceedings will be submitted to major indexing services, such as DOAJ, Publons, Web of Science (CPCI), Semantic Scholar, Google Scholar, etc.

*** Call for papers ***
* Paper submission due: March 14, 2022
* Acceptance notification: April 29, 2022
* Camera-ready papers due: May 14, 2022
* Workshop @ COMM 2022: June 16-18 (TBD), 2022
High expansion of urban population and recent world events
complemented by the alarming increase of the number of threats to
infrastructure safety have mobilized Authorities to redesign societal
security concepts. Law Enforcement Authorities are focusing and aiming
consistently their actions at preventing crimes and protecting people,
properties, and critical infrastructures.
With the accelerated advances of communications and storage
technologies, access to critical information acquired from various
sensors and sources, e.g., land cameras, satellite data, drones,
personal devices, has been significantly eased. Manipulation and
processing of such a high amount of diverse data is still a steady
challenge, and most of the existing solutions involve the use of human
resources. However, threats are now hybrid and at a very large scale,
requiring very different security solutions which can make use of
interdisciplinary approaches. In this context, computer-assisted or
automated technologies are now becoming more and more attractive to
substitute expensive human resources in the decision systems.
RISS 2022 focuses on discussing solutions provided by Intelligent
Systems to the challenges. It aims to bring together researchers from
academia and industry, end-users, law-enforcing agencies, and citizen
groups to share experiences and explore multi- and inter-disciplinary
areas where additional research and development are needed, identify
possible collaboration and consider the societal impact of such
technologies.
Authors are invited to submit original, previously unpublished work,
reporting on novel and significant research contributions, on-going
research projects, experimental results and recent developments
related to Intelligent Techniques for Secure Societies on the
following topics (but not limited to):
- Computer vision (e.g., crowd monitoring, scene understanding)
- Multimedia information retrieval (e.g., indexing, searching, and
browsing, Big Data)
- Information fusion from various sensors (e.g., visual, infrared, depth, sound)
- Machine learning (e.g., very large-scale deep learning, neural networks)
- Embedded systems, IoT, and low energy footprint computing
- Social media, cybercrimes, and fake news
- Surveillance systems and interactive solutions
- Forensics and crime scene reconstruction
- Unmanned aerial, terrestrial, underwater vehicles, and robots
- Biometric systems and algorithms (e.g., body, fingerprint, gesture,
voice recognition)
- Case studies, practical systems, and testbeds
- Ethics, data protection, privacy protection, civil liberties, and
social exclusion issues
- Benchmarking, evaluation, and data sets
*** Submission guidelines ***
Prospective authors are invited to submit original, previously
unpublished technical papers for presentation in the conference
sections and for publication in the COMM2022 Conference Proceedings.
Since 2010, the papers presented at the conference have been published
in IEEEXplore and ISI database. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a
paper from distribution after the conference, including IEEE Xplore®
Digital Library, if the paper is not presented by the author at the
conference. To submit your contribution, please adhere strictly to the
conference guidelines available here

LREC2022 HOT TOPICS
DESCRIBE AND SHARE YOUR LRs!
In addition to describing your LRs in the LRE Map - now a normal step in the submission procedure of many conferences - LREC recognises the importance of sharing resources and making them available to the community.
When submitting a paper, you will be offered the possibility to share your LRs (data, tools, web-services, etc.), uploading them in a special LREC repository set up by ELRA. After LREC, such Language Resources will be made available to the community within the share-LRs repository set-up by ELRA, in compliance with the licenses indicated by right-holders. This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their description, contributes to creating a common repository where everyone can deposit and share data.
PROGRAMME
The Scientific Programme will include invited talks, oral, poster and demo presentations in addition to a keynote address by the winner of the Antonio Zampolli Prize.
An Industrial Track to report on state of the art within industry and commercial achievements, for which there will be a separate Call, will also be organized
SUBMISSIONS AND DATES
Submission Site: https://www.softconf.com/lrec2022/main
LREC2020 asks for full papers from 4 pages to 8 pages (plus more pages for references if needed), which must strictly follow the LREC stylesheet which will be available on the conference website.
The submission deadline for Workshop and Tutorial Proposals is
extended to November 5, 2021 (23:59 GMT+1).
Both links to the Workshop and Tutorial submission pages remain:

ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval (ICMR) 2022
June 27-30, 2022 @ Newark, NJ, USA (Hybrid)
https://www.icmr2022.org/
=================================================================
Effectively and efficiently retrieving information based on user needs is one of the most exciting areas in multimedia research. The Annual ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval (ICMR) offers a great opportunity for exchanging leading-edge multimedia retrieval ideas among researchers, practitioners and other potential users of multimedia retrieval systems.This annual conference, which puts together the long-lasting experiences of the former ACM CIVR (International Conference on Image and Video Retrieval) and ACM MIR (International Conference on Multimedia Information Retrieval) series, was set up in 2011 to illuminate the state of the arts in multimedia (e.g., text, image, video, audio, sensor data, 3D) retrieval. Following the successful previous editions of ICMR; Trento, Italy 2011, Hong Kong, China 2012, Dallas, USA 2013, Glasgow, UK 2014, Shanghai, China 2015, New York, USA 2016, Bucharest, Romania 2017, Yokohama, Japan 2018, Ottawa, Canada 2019, Dublin, Ireland 2020, and Taipei, Taiwan 2021.
ACM ICMR 2022 is calling for papers presenting significant and innovative research in multimedia retrieval and related fields. Papers should extend the state of the art by addressing new problems or proposing insightful solutions. The scope of the conference includes core topics in multimedia retrieval and recommendation, as well as the broader set of topics that must be addressed to ensure that multimedia retrieval technologies are of practical use in real-world use cases. Special emphasis is placed on topics related to large-scale indexing, mixed reality user interaction, exploiting diverse and multimodal data, and domain-specific challenges.

=========================================Call for Papers
AREA 2 - Annotation, Recognition and Evaluation of Actions
AREA - 2 will be held at the 33nd European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information - ESSLLI 2022 at Galway, Ireland. AREA- 2 is organized in the first ESSLLI week with plenary talks, posters and demonstrations. AREA - 2 is a SIGSEM-sponsored workshop.
Date: 8 - 12 August 2022
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION MOTIVATION AND TOPICS
=============================================
AREA - 2 is the follow up on the first AREA meeting at LREC 2018 (http://www.areaworkshop.org/). There has recently been increased interest in modeling actions, as described by natural language expressions and gestures, and as depicted by images and videos. Additionally, action modeling has emerged as an important topic in robotics and HCI. The goal of the AREA - 2 workshop is to gather and discuss advances in research areas where actions are paramount e.g., virtual embodied agents, robotics, HRI, human-computer communication, as well as modeling multimodal human-human interactions involving actions. Action modeling is an inherently multi-disciplinary area, involving contributions from computational linguistics, AI, semantics, robotics, psychology, and formal logic.
While there has been considerable attention in the community paid to the representation and recognition of events (e.g., the development of ISO-TimeML and associated specifications, and the 4 Workshops on “EVENTS: Definition, Detection, Coreference, and Representation”), the goals of this workshop are focused specifically on actions undertaken by embodied agents as opposed to events in the abstract. By concentrating on actions, we hope to attract those researchers working in computational semantics, gesture, dialogue, HCI, robotics, and other areas, in order to develop a community around action as a communicative modality where their work can be communicated and shared. This community will be a venue for the development and evaluation of resources regarding the integration of action recognition and processing in human-computer communication.
We invite submissions on foundational, conceptual, and practical issues involving modeling actions, as described by natural language expressions and gestures, and as depicted by images and videos. Relevant topics include but are not limited to:
- dynamic models of actions
- formal semantic models of actions
- affordance modeling
- manipulation action modeling
- linking multimodal descriptions and presentations of actions (image, text, icon, video)
- automatic action recognition from text, images, and videos
- communicating and performing actions with robots or avatars for joint tasks
- action language grounding
- evaluation of action models
IMPORTANT DATES
================
First CfP: 23 December 2021
Final CfP: 6 April 2022
Deadline for paper submission: 28 April 2022
Review deadline: 25 May 2022
Notification of acceptance: 15 June 2022
Deadline for camera-ready version: 29 June 2022
Early registration deadline: TBA
Workshop Date: 8-19 August 2022
SUBMISSION
==========
Three types of submissions are invited:
- Research papers, describing original research; these can be either long (6-8 pages, not including references) or short (3-4 pages, not including references);
- Project notes, describing recent, ongoing or planned projects (2-4 pages including references);
- Demonstration notes, accompanying demonstration of software, tools, or systems (2-4 pages including references).
We will decide whether to have an oral or poster presentation, depending on reviewer suggestions and the overall workshop schedule.
Papers should be formatted following the common two-column structure as used by ACL. Please use style templates, which are available as an Overleaf template and can also be downloaded directly (Latex and Word). The templates themselves contain only specific notes (e.g., LaTeX notes in the .tex file). Please follow the paper formatting guidelines general to *ACL conferences available here. Similar to ACL 2022, initial submissions should be fully anonymous to ensure double-blind reviewing.
Papers should be submitted via Easy chair the AREA - 2 website (http://www.areaworkshop.org/) will provide a link for submitting papers.
