                   CALL FOR PAPERS
 
SECOND WORKSHOP ON NEURAL NETWORKS FOR SPEECH PROCESSING
             Florence, 10-11 December 1992
--------------------------------------------------------
 
Objective:
This workshop will focus on the application of neural
networks for speech processing. The following areas
of interest will be mainly covered:
 
- Neural Models for Speech Processing (Backpropagation,
  Backpropagation through time; LVQ,...):
- Integration between ``classical'' A.S.R. techniques
  (e.g. DTW, HMM) and neural networks;
- Integration between priori-knowledge and neural networks.
 
Papers based on neural models which report results in
speech compression, phoneme and word recognition,... are
solicited. Critical reviews are also welcome.
 
 
Contributions:
 
Submissions should be in the form of an abstract of 2-3 pp.
to be received by:
