Machine Listening in
Multisource Environments (CHiME 2013)
CHiME 2013 is a one-day workshop to be held in conjunction with ICASSP 2013 that will
consider the challenge of developing
machine listening applications for operation in
multisource environments, i.e. real-world conditions with acoustic
clutter, where the number and nature of the sound sources
is unknown and changing over time. CHiME brings together researchers from a broad
range of disciplines (computational hearing, blind source separation, speech recognition, machine
learning) to discuss novel and established approaches to this problem. The cross-fertilisation of ideas will foster
fresh approaches that efficiently combine the complementary strengths
of each research field.
Relevant research topics include (but are not limited to),
- automatic speech recognition in multisource environments,
- acoustic event detection in multisource environments,
- sound source detection and tracking in multisource
environments,
- music information retrieval in multisource environments,
- sound source separation or enhancement in multisource
environments,
- robust feature extraction and classification in multisource environments,
- scene analysis and understanding for multisource environments.
The workshop will feature keynote talks from
The full programme and key note talk presentations
now available.
The CHiME Challenge
As a focus for discussion during the day, the workshop will host the 2nd CHiME
Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge. This is a two-microphone multisource speech separation
and recognition challenge supported by the IEEE AASP, MLSP and SLTC Technical Committees. To find out more please visit the
Challenge Website.
