| 0:00:15 | so i think that we can start |
|---|
| 0:00:18 | let me officially invite you walmart's czech republic |
|---|
| 0:00:23 | for i don't know how many times you already had use asr you know there |
|---|
| 0:00:27 | was nineteen eighty five |
|---|
| 0:00:31 | the first say |
|---|
| 0:00:34 | let me think |
|---|
| 0:00:37 | ieee speech comedy for allowing us |
|---|
| 0:00:43 | not to have the workshop |
|---|
| 0:00:45 | in place like this |
|---|
| 0:00:48 | not to have a |
|---|
| 0:00:50 | workshop place like this |
|---|
| 0:00:52 | but rather to have a workshop |
|---|
| 0:00:54 | in the place like this |
|---|
| 0:00:57 | because we actually wanted to see who is coming |
|---|
| 0:01:01 | for science |
|---|
| 0:01:03 | who is coming for each is mostly |
|---|
| 0:01:05 | so those of you why you're seriously we take very seriously and we take the |
|---|
| 0:01:12 | finance and you remember these spaces |
|---|
| 0:01:15 | because we know that you are here because of speech |
|---|
| 0:01:19 | recognition |
|---|
| 0:01:21 | so this is this is very good |
|---|
| 0:01:25 | at the same time we want to remind you that even that almost doesn't have |
|---|
| 0:01:30 | beaches |
|---|
| 0:01:32 | or ski slopes it is that which they recognise not in the score is one |
|---|
| 0:01:37 | of the unique styles in europe |
|---|
| 0:01:39 | it's very or more at and i will |
|---|
| 0:01:42 | actually i'm coming from but nobody to admit that normalcy number base is nicer |
|---|
| 0:01:47 | and if it wasn't forced me this trends doing a bit more senior up |
|---|
| 0:01:52 | would have probably you know capital for more at a they were unlikely because they |
|---|
| 0:01:57 | got right out by over by sweets and they're not even so the balloon inside |
|---|
| 0:02:02 | growing somehow |
|---|
| 0:02:04 | routine to more important in spite of that there is still a big university on |
|---|
| 0:02:08 | a lot of nice houses and all classes and you see some of them even |
|---|
| 0:02:13 | i mean in a sequential possible for |
|---|
| 0:02:18 | wednesday insulin so please take that it sometime i'm not encouraging you to skip the |
|---|
| 0:02:24 | technical program but if you to choose so if you choose to do so you |
|---|
| 0:02:29 | made what we is not five about ten minute walk to two thousand so |
|---|
| 0:02:34 | so that |
|---|
| 0:02:37 | i would still like to take a possibility to remind to a friend and colleague |
|---|
| 0:02:41 | a tragedy like you would be totally the idea to see that to asr you |
|---|
| 0:02:47 | eventually maybe the czech republic |
|---|
| 0:02:50 | you know there is one of activities in speech and czech republic and i believe |
|---|
| 0:02:54 | that large the actually maybe also because of right |
|---|
| 0:02:58 | because he was always helping people here trying to encourage people to get into speech |
|---|
| 0:03:04 | so as i said i mean i would be i'm sure that you would be |
|---|
| 0:03:07 | very happy to be among cost which unfortunately didn't happen or so we take this |
|---|
| 0:03:13 | opportunity to be mean to remind us |
|---|
| 0:03:16 | how the asr start it was in i believe nineteen eighty five are at the |
|---|
| 0:03:21 | house in these days the workshop was very different from conference |
|---|
| 0:03:25 | where was the place where we discuss |
|---|
| 0:03:27 | current state-of-the-art future of the i beam and very heated discussions that mike and eighty |
|---|
| 0:03:33 | five i remember that was when |
|---|
| 0:03:35 | stochastic approach is what they came over and the knowledge based approaches where somehow going |
|---|
| 0:03:41 | to be to but in background that words and basically dispense pdas discussing the right |
|---|
| 0:03:48 | way to go |
|---|
| 0:03:49 | we would scale like to see the asr you to do this rather than be |
|---|
| 0:03:54 | yet another meeting where we present latest and greatest we still do that because we |
|---|
| 0:03:58 | have a posters and so you can always bring the only is the greatest but |
|---|
| 0:04:02 | as far as discussion satisfies talks are concerned |
|---|
| 0:04:06 | what we try to do is to bring up something issues which are important as |
|---|
| 0:04:10 | we speak about the technical committee what a lot topics in speech recognition and you |
|---|
| 0:04:17 | will be discussing i think mozart chernotsky will tell you more about the details of |
|---|
| 0:04:22 | the technical program and everything so i will pass |
|---|
| 0:04:25 | the microphone to be |
|---|
| 0:04:28 | okay thank you can actually i will try to do with the other microphone well |
|---|
| 0:04:34 | just the about the program that the are gonna see the this P |
|---|
| 0:04:38 | so the core of the program us it is usual are talks |
|---|
| 0:04:42 | we have the combination of you know and invited talks |
|---|
| 0:04:45 | organized in three topical there is so we are very happy that the organ and |
|---|
| 0:04:50 | the right and the accepted the that organise the first one or neural networks which |
|---|
| 0:04:55 | is gonna take place today then we will have low resource is my gym class |
|---|
| 0:05:00 | and the rnn johnson |
|---|
| 0:05:02 | and then applications done by lies by better maureen on the you on the sharp |
|---|
| 0:05:07 | peak |
|---|
| 0:05:08 | then well |
|---|
| 0:05:10 | we try to ask you guys |
|---|
| 0:05:13 | what should be presented on the on the fourth day so we add at the |
|---|
| 0:05:16 | question ari for the do we within the paper submission and we look the at |
|---|
| 0:05:23 | the on source of all sorts of the accepted once and actually the topic that |
|---|
| 0:05:26 | was requested the most was the fragility |
|---|
| 0:05:30 | for the robustness of asr so rather than the classical topics |
|---|
| 0:05:35 | we a so that would be it would be appropriate to invite our icsi colleagues |
|---|
| 0:05:39 | jordan cohen and steve ekman to talk about the old |
|---|
| 0:05:44 | project which is an and even investigation of why the asr systems fail so that's |
|---|
| 0:05:50 | what we will see the last day |
|---|
| 0:05:52 | and sure they are the regular papers so just a little statistics we had the |
|---|
| 0:05:57 | one seventy two |
|---|
| 0:05:59 | regular papers submit it at very accepted which with us with us to forty six |
|---|
| 0:06:04 | and something |
|---|
| 0:06:05 | acceptance rate and the i would like to think our technical chairs for great work |
|---|
| 0:06:11 | in organising correlating these reviews so then what we |
|---|
| 0:06:16 | or was the main guy and look out where get jason williams sound you could |
|---|
| 0:06:20 | on would i'm not sure and the any stereo no we're working it's technical chairs |
|---|
| 0:06:26 | well of course papers need to be reviewed so i think that many of you |
|---|
| 0:06:31 | guys served as review or something you deserve our great the things |
|---|
| 0:06:36 | then the process was done technically by C M S |
|---|
| 0:06:41 | and the everything that this the printed material whatever if the proceedings or the conference |
|---|
| 0:06:47 | book |
|---|
| 0:06:48 | they were checked by on the high each and i thomas hain |
|---|
| 0:06:54 | whom i would like to thank as well |
|---|
| 0:06:57 | and that well we |
|---|
| 0:07:00 | for the organisation of the posters |
|---|
| 0:07:02 | i got many questions like when is my session |
|---|
| 0:07:05 | i actually the answer is no nowhere |
|---|
| 0:07:09 | never and ever |
|---|
| 0:07:11 | because if we tried to do a little change in this it's are you |
|---|
| 0:07:17 | reacting opened the usual complaints that we year in every conference like |
|---|
| 0:07:22 | it's too crowded i can see anything |
|---|
| 0:07:25 | and the to other one so we tried to launch something but with maybe a |
|---|
| 0:07:31 | be more pleasant for people |
|---|
| 0:07:34 | and that is that the all the posters are training all the time so we |
|---|
| 0:07:37 | had just |
|---|
| 0:07:38 | three half an hour slots or the authors are really requested to be at their |
|---|
| 0:07:42 | posters |
|---|
| 0:07:43 | and then otherwise they can plan their talks and discussions the for any time during |
|---|
| 0:07:48 | the munchies coffee breaks in the middle of the night if you if you wish |
|---|
| 0:07:52 | so we hope that the this arrangement will make it more presents and of course |
|---|
| 0:07:57 | you naked myself are ready to receive criticism and Q tips if you like it |
|---|
| 0:08:05 | and we have a demo and the toolkit session one thursday that was organised by |
|---|
| 0:08:11 | using to guide by young the knows that we didn't have as many submissions as |
|---|
| 0:08:16 | last time in have i |
|---|
| 0:08:19 | so we are open to receive also ad hoc you mode so actually if you |
|---|
| 0:08:24 | have a product if you have a toolkit or anything that using would be versus |
|---|
| 0:08:28 | the presenting to the slu public just |
|---|
| 0:08:32 | well |
|---|
| 0:08:33 | stand up talk to us before in case there are many arrangements you need to |
|---|
| 0:08:39 | do and this possible to show it on a thursday morning |
|---|
| 0:08:46 | well no conference |
|---|
| 0:08:48 | would make it without sponsors |
|---|
| 0:08:50 | so i would like to thank our industrial oblique publicity chars that was my cribbage |
|---|
| 0:08:56 | any the at which parts |
|---|
| 0:08:59 | actually and patrick when for great help actually getting a is sponsorship |
|---|
| 0:09:07 | so we had to do but you know my sponsors in our office of naval |
|---|
| 0:09:12 | research and the and google |
|---|
| 0:09:15 | the gold level sponsorship |
|---|
| 0:09:18 | we're |
|---|
| 0:09:19 | i shouldn't say sponsorship this is for beaten by ieee because actually the chief sponsor |
|---|
| 0:09:24 | of the conferences the signal processing so cyclic so support sorry this should be support |
|---|
| 0:09:30 | well you dance microsoft and the newton technologies from chick group from the czech republic |
|---|
| 0:09:36 | and silver support |
|---|
| 0:09:39 | was done by phonics see a and the idea of research |
|---|
| 0:09:43 | and you have a five runs the supporters so calypso from singapore |
|---|
| 0:09:49 | linger are ready a that our local companies a well and the ubm |
|---|
| 0:09:57 | well there was the local organizing team so i would like to think of the |
|---|
| 0:10:02 | guys from |
|---|
| 0:10:03 | i L C I or out see even agency |
|---|
| 0:10:07 | these guys are responsible for the local arrangements and |
|---|
| 0:10:11 | sasha combining should be somewhere around so i would like to thank him |
|---|
| 0:10:14 | and his team and of course there are some people from but that were helping |
|---|
| 0:10:20 | so but each got over there at the khmer |
|---|
| 0:10:24 | of great help with the vet web page then the silver how about what you |
|---|
| 0:10:30 | can you counts |
|---|
| 0:10:31 | an article are all doing all possible little things that the tell the success of |
|---|
| 0:10:36 | the conference and among over our students |
|---|
| 0:10:39 | i would like to thank you don't necessarily that was the most helpful but of |
|---|
| 0:10:43 | course all the other guys that were rescored veggies so if you spot someone with |
|---|
| 0:10:48 | the yellow strips of the badge don't hesitate to ask them about some very practical |
|---|
| 0:10:52 | things like for example the longest one or less check word |
|---|
| 0:10:56 | and the and so on |
|---|
| 0:10:59 | then well i come to these practical things about eating and drinking so you know |
|---|
| 0:11:04 | this is czech republic globals is somewhere to the east so definitely there is here |
|---|
| 0:11:09 | everywhere but it would like to critically remind you that we have also examined when |
|---|
| 0:11:15 | they are in some more area |
|---|
| 0:11:17 | so we specially dry |
|---|
| 0:11:19 | white wines excellent |
|---|
| 0:11:21 | but in the north |
|---|
| 0:11:23 | of more area with have also many people this delighting pretty much anything that's a |
|---|
| 0:11:27 | contains sugar |
|---|
| 0:11:29 | so if you if you ask a for anything that is ending with the I |
|---|
| 0:11:33 | C E this is not to be pronounced the size but it's a |
|---|
| 0:11:37 | next remove it simmering curve it's dictionary so whatever the you won't be disappointed but |
|---|
| 0:11:42 | you very much stronger than any are probably used to |
|---|
| 0:11:46 | then well one |
|---|
| 0:11:48 | eating and drinking there will be location |
|---|
| 0:11:51 | the exercise this activity in the in the bank at of course so we will |
|---|
| 0:11:55 | have it in a very historical place are should bishop's palace so for all of |
|---|
| 0:11:59 | old |
|---|
| 0:12:00 | as unix said this place was established when no one ever heard about but also |
|---|
| 0:12:05 | actually of the time or not was kind of |
|---|
| 0:12:09 | small which in the middle of nowhere |
|---|
| 0:12:11 | and we will have a music entertainment by a group that is centered the long |
|---|
| 0:12:15 | symbol on word symbol a local music instrument |
|---|
| 0:12:21 | so actually i won't say more about this will have the opportunity to listen to |
|---|
| 0:12:26 | these guys |
|---|
| 0:12:27 | and try out if they can play something more than four or tunes |
|---|
| 0:12:31 | then still pretty much around the food and drinks |
|---|
| 0:12:36 | well not the first one you have your tools that are organised |
|---|
| 0:12:41 | so the first tourists a guided walk through the city of all modes |
|---|
| 0:12:47 | which takes place today tomorrow and the day after tomorrow lasts for two hours and |
|---|
| 0:12:54 | actually if you are interested in these just the let the guys know at the |
|---|
| 0:12:59 | at the reception |
|---|
| 0:13:00 | then for the day there is some here tasting in the bigger brew very smart |
|---|
| 0:13:08 | the vast lusty the U R |
|---|
| 0:13:11 | and for use the |
|---|
| 0:13:15 | there is actually a two are organized to the wine cellars in community |
|---|
| 0:13:21 | it's seventy kilometres from here some the price includes way that the travel wine |
|---|
| 0:13:28 | some food |
|---|
| 0:13:29 | and the well you probably won't be able to see all these beautiful gardens because |
|---|
| 0:13:34 | gram usage is known for their gardens but i think what is gonna happen in |
|---|
| 0:13:39 | the source can compensate for the for the beauty of the gardens |
|---|
| 0:13:44 | okay so that was the bunk at the two Rs now i'm at the very |
|---|
| 0:13:49 | important point and then this is the prices so we had three of them |
|---|
| 0:13:54 | that's the student paper and word |
|---|
| 0:13:57 | that was sponsored the by microsoft |
|---|
| 0:14:00 | you have best paper award sponsored by I B M and best poster word that |
|---|
| 0:14:05 | is actually our own thing |
|---|
| 0:14:07 | so let's begin with the best the student paper |
|---|
| 0:14:12 | and |
|---|
| 0:14:14 | well the normally would be just why it with and this over which unfortunately cannot |
|---|
| 0:14:20 | be years so i would ask hynek maybe two |
|---|
| 0:14:23 | and these places these prices over |
|---|
| 0:14:27 | so the papers were selected by the technical committee and the third |
|---|
| 0:14:34 | the student paper those the hierarchical system for word discovery exploiting dtw based initialization why |
|---|
| 0:14:41 | all over water be more courthouse and hold it will but |
|---|
| 0:14:46 | weeks not around |
|---|
| 0:14:48 | any of you guys here |
|---|
| 0:14:50 | very nice |
|---|
| 0:15:04 | so maybe guys we can pose for the for the for the graphic so |
|---|
| 0:15:07 | so that you have a nice photo |
|---|
| 0:15:13 | okay |
|---|
| 0:15:15 | so the |
|---|
| 0:15:17 | second prize |
|---|
| 0:15:19 | knows the fixed-dimensional acoustic |
|---|
| 0:15:21 | embeddings of variable-length segments in low resource settings like these live in |
|---|
| 0:15:26 | get are in an array |
|---|
| 0:15:28 | and jensen |
|---|
| 0:15:29 | currently the school that's it |
|---|
| 0:15:34 | right |
|---|
| 0:15:54 | as you |
|---|
| 0:15:59 | actually things |
|---|
| 0:16:01 | and the first one so the best student paper those two unsupervised induction and filling |
|---|
| 0:16:06 | of semantic slots for spoken dialogue systems using phrase semantic parsing you mention ubm younger |
|---|
| 0:16:13 | on alex we need to P |
|---|
| 0:16:17 | okay very nice |
|---|
| 0:16:35 | okay so that was the student papers |
|---|
| 0:16:38 | for best papers that was sponsored by id and we had to that a site |
|---|
| 0:16:42 | not |
|---|
| 0:16:43 | here that is organized the thing and that and over the prices |
|---|
| 0:16:47 | so there is a staircase somewhere over there data or you can jump actually is |
|---|
| 0:16:51 | not |
|---|
| 0:17:01 | if you use the unit it's only the point one |
|---|
| 0:17:04 | so the third one goes the convolutional neural network based triangular crf for joint intent |
|---|
| 0:17:11 | detection and slot filling |
|---|
| 0:17:14 | we are two we study carry out |
|---|
| 0:17:19 | and we like any of you you're right |
|---|
| 0:17:24 | anyone else from microsoft that they are |
|---|
| 0:17:27 | for these yes |
|---|
| 0:17:31 | okay |
|---|
| 0:17:49 | very nice the second price that all of atwv probing the mysteries of keyword search |
|---|
| 0:17:56 | performance is my steve big men out of area atoms in can be neon how |
|---|
| 0:18:02 | much and the mortgage |
|---|
| 0:18:21 | right |
|---|
| 0:18:23 | and the first one acoustic data driven pronunciation lexicon for large vocabulary speech recognition by |
|---|
| 0:18:30 | the anglo are not what shall steve renals from anymore |
|---|
| 0:18:40 | okay in regard still sleepy no is T Vs there |
|---|
| 0:18:55 | thank you very much think about |
|---|
| 0:18:57 | so it should it ever there are some the amounts of money on this and |
|---|
| 0:19:02 | the so far enough just the checks |
|---|
| 0:19:04 | so the one that's very important we stopped at the reception very many real money |
|---|
| 0:19:08 | for |
|---|
| 0:19:10 | well then we had the best post reward |
|---|
| 0:19:13 | which should be selected by you guys so everyone that got the attention there is |
|---|
| 0:19:18 | about |
|---|
| 0:19:19 | on the black arrow the badge |
|---|
| 0:19:21 | so just the latent cost it's to develop what it is the registration please no |
|---|
| 0:19:27 | later than and then there is they i am so that we can so that |
|---|

|---|
| 0:20:17 | and does the variance so i've issue |
|---|
| 0:20:20 | gerbils they you normals |
|---|
