Odyssey: The Speaker and Language Recognition Workshop
Odyssey 2024: The Speaker and Language Recognition Workshop was hosted at Quebec City Convention Center, Quebec, Canada, during June 18 – June 21, 2024.
The workshop is an ISCA tutorial and research workshop held in cooperation with the ISCA Speaker and Language Characterization special interest group. In an age where artificial intelligence and machine learning are redefining human-computer interaction, it is imperative that we address the disparities that can arise in speaker and language recognition systems. These disparities often affect individuals with diverse accents, linguistic backgrounds, or speech variations, creating a digital divide that must be bridged.
The theme of this workshop, "No Speaker Left Behind", underscores our commitment to overcoming these challenges. We are dedicated to forging a path towards more equitable and accessible voice technology, where every voice is recognized, understood, and empowered.
