Odyssey 2012 @ Singapore! The Speaker and Language Recognition Workshop
Odyssey 2012: The Speaker and Language Recognition Workshop will
be hosted by COLIPS in Singapore on 25-28 June 2012.
Odyssey’12 is an ISCA Tutorial and Research Workshop
held in cooperation with the ISCA Speaker and Language
Characterization SIG. The need for fast, efficient, accurate,
and robust means of recognizing people and languages
is of growing importance for commercial, forensic, and
government applications. The aim of this workshop is
to continue to foster interactions among researchers
in speaker and language recognition as the successor
of previous successful events held in Martigny (1994),
Avignon (1998), Crete (2001), Toledo (2004), San Juan
(2006), Stellenbosch (2008) and Brno (2010).
