Dear colleague,
We are glad to announce a new mailing list dedicated to the hot topic of Machine Listening.
http://groups.google.com/group/machinelistening
The list aims to attract members from diverse research communities
(signal processing, machine learning, robotics) united by an interest
in building robust Machine Listening applications, be it for speech,
music or environmental sound scene understanding.
We are reaching out to the Robotics community for list members because we believe that Machine Listening will become an increasingly important discipline for robotics in the future. Integrating listening technology into robotics platforms raises unique research questions that can only be solved by bringing together expertise from the robotics and machine listening communities. There are emerging research themes such as active sensing and audio-motor control which lie at the intersection of the robotics and machine listening and which demand a collaborative approach.In particular, there will be a scientific focus on source localization, acoustic event detection, speech recognition, emotion detection, and other audio-related tasks that robots are required to perform in real acoustic environments.
The list will serve as a place for announcing events (workshops, challenges, journal special issues, etc), publicising opportunities (jobs, PhD places, etc) and we hope it will also serve as a valuable discussion forum for people working in the field.
We have decided to use Google Groups as the platform for the list. In order to subscribe, please follow the link below.
