Odyssey: The Speaker and Language Recognition Workshop
Odyssey 2020: The Speaker and Language Recognition Workshop will be hosted by NEC Corporation and Tokyo Institute of Technology in Tokyo, Japan, on May 17-21, 2020. The workshop is an ISCA tutorial and research workshop held in cooperation with the ISCA Speaker and Language Characterization special interest group. 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), Brno (2010), Singapore (2012), Joensuu (2014), Bilbao (2016) and Les Sables d’Olonne (2018).
