Bojar, Charles U.) – non-native disfluent speech CONFERENCE TOPICS IWSLT invites submissions of scientific papers to be published in the ACL proceedings and presented either in oral or poster format. The conference selects high quality, original contributions on theoretical and practical issues of automatic speech recognition (ASR), machine translation (MT) speech synthesis (TTS) pertaining to spoken language translation (SLT). More specific topics include: Approaches and performance Under-resourced languages End-to-end models Multimodal Interfaces Evaluation, metrics, benchmarks, usability Architectures Paralinguistic aspects in interpretation Adaptation Language resources Post- and pre-processing Open source software Efficiency, speed, latency Multilingual approaches Sign language translation Applications Discourse and context aware translation -- -- Le informazioni contenute nella presente comunicazione sono di natura privata e come tali sono da considerarsi riservate ed indirizzate esclusivamente ai destinatari indicati e per le finalità strettamente legate al relativo contenuto.
