Opening & Closing

thank you risk a welcome to the ldc two thousand six the

on behalf of the local comedy it's my pleasure to welcome on the participants to

this addition i think this that and solution of the honesty two thousand thing workshop

all this is are gonna be a note event organiser by discussing a speech in

there is work on the speaker and language but application and brings together researcher from

or why we present there like this finding and insights on that wide range of

topics scoring the speaker and language got application modeling evolution on the application in this

two thousand is used in addition

which almost one hundred and twenty participants

and with the help of a day and international and if you comedy composed like

make decisions expert from twenty countries ought of at submission a

if we ate but they were three percent to show one there have been outfitted

for the presentation of this are

a

but the eight percent of a as that that's right

there no less than three and up to five fairly view but paper

therefore they technical programming thinking notes five or us assume three posters system and to

a special session chair by the nist and the is guys but there's work on

speech and language but maybe a multimedia

besides foreigns you can industry track an actual and tells us you have been allocated

to give companies naps government agencies and all that interested party the opportunity to actively

participate in the oven

all this it was not insisting features three embedded the speaker

the high solely from dct for info kong research singapore fee we discuss a speech

liveness detection in the context of a speaker verification they wouldn't have media for speaker

verification to speech synthesis and voice conversion and the findings from the first automatic speaker

verification spoofing on confirmation challenge

the top second and that i got an from university office of california

and he will focus on steps the where abouts in this can defeat understanding of

how local for vocal tract morphology and its articulation in there are and is explained

everybody and anybody an aspect of the speech you know probabilities a closed door

finally doctor matching hat

and from john hopkins university

we will show us for our non-negative factor analysis on super space moody model or

although similar to with based approaches can be used to model the height and layer

neural activation on the deep neural network model for sequential data recognition that's such as

language and dialect a recognition

it is what show has been possible things that both of the steering committee from

the is considering there's room one speaker and language computation

and the compressive untimely reviews of all this can t v comedy my best and

got to say that the thanks to the timely review we have been able to

set up all the technical program in more than one more thing of buttons

with links

all day a special thing to go meet you known and could do example andres

what a dummy we're not only for this purpose of all the c two thousand

fourteen

but probably that's with an extended report short of the holy bible to prepare and

only see i he also guy or steps in preparing this workshop when we stop

the two years ago

join and lewis who have been key players in the on a nice in the

forensic conditions with that type and the show until systems we also thing to marketing

cook for his help in preparing the provenance for this can achieve

we have been able to publish them three weeks in advance

i also want to remain you that this of in this submission to the computer

speech and language a special issue about recent advances in the speaker and language recognition

and connotation with correct all of you to extend your all the c paper and

shouldn't be too this especially sure that fits perfectly the objective for this workshop

finally i want you things that media by the sponsorship of the best paper award

and figures logic by the sponsorship of the basis to the paperwork this work will

be pronounced during the catalina to more right

i thought you have you will have like with i mean in be well that

what it is find no

i can only with you or you have free for learning table one shows like

to thank you thank you have

well now it's time to talk about this any of the i'm bill well

and the first think i would like to

to comment is the local

and this is called that i love will bow is

is in fact is just a tiling the ground you look down in the street

something about you will find it is pretty uses a tile in the ground

in fact this one point that of a tile

in the in the shops you will find whatever you can imagine with this simple

well as the ones cakes everything

okay

we have used the symbol also in york this desert

a i p two bigger than we wanted but

the way they did they data that in the desert we couldn't

and please note that utopian sizes are so is smaller than us sizes so when

you choose the that is a stick this into account

for in judging bilbao without included in your a backpack some rogers of will well

some for doing sort works for you have the map you have i tight of

bilbao the could ready bands et cetera so you can just do you are going

to spend sound a simple about you can't use this is accommodation

utterance partitioning bilbao them there are different ways of moving the email about the matter

about who's drum set about the best way is walking so is a very small

cd the them descended was it is very small so can you can just walk

around

is enough

nh in the image a soft as shown in this slide this is like cable

car to approach and that is

a small montana close to be about that you can use to get their a

and there are very beautiful used from their of read about

okay this is the venue

and the menu is the old in of this pen use the you devoted to

the west country which was a higher it for three in fact so this was

very important for us and we knowledge this especially to fernando

it is role of representative of the university the basque country

for this a special conditions for doing this conference

in this planning this mapping you can see that three spaces where going to use

the for the whole flores for us you can move

i in the core either since it out it can just a you what you

want they are we have a hole in the

the this part which is close to the registration desk and you can use it

for stay for a test for checking the email for whatever you want

there's some meetings programmer thing in this room i will post paper in there for

an unseen it but the most of the dined you can use it for rest

okay

then this is the allowable a room a this

this one where we have a nice the poster sessions and the coffee breaks is

not

brady body is quite a small in fact for more than one hundred people so

please use the other spaces sensitive to caffeine corpus because we are going to be

very crowded in the coffee breaks if it's not and this is the about of

a whole where all their systems they all also assumes on the first part of

the process is just systems will take place

i just remind some peeps for presentation

you have to applaud representation to a decision computer which is over the

or submitted to this address email address

for us to have at in advance is very important

this other out and presentations will be twenty minute a long

and there will be if i means for questions some concepts

the posters do also required are sort presentation

two three minutes i remind this especially to the

terms of this assumes to control these it's very important also

where recording all the all the presentations you have to sign a consent form for

be a person everyone the keynote speakers a day or not percent there's the show

the pasta percent this everyone cost to assign this constant phone please i we have

it printed copies in

just by their i three i don't know the name in english that

and

in the case of the posters to play posted panels are available to with i'm

number and number which is the index of your cluster so just a when you

have to attach to your boss that just take into account your number two to

choose the right panel that's all

and i just remind this the computer speech to compute the speech something with a

special

a issue a lot already commented so on this but i just remembered that the

remind you that the deadline uses september sixteen

so you have time to prepare your you work would you can send just in

the presence of you're working here in a you know you see a leans on

new information new results whatever

and the lance we will have to lance in this the able to a lot

over which is just by the and their this characterize pretty close to lose we

walk

used for a five minute walk

is quite close but i remind you that the optimum systems to start at hot

of course to so we have one or and a fast for having lance so

we have to go having lance and then come back

and taking this into account in

when you go to lance we can see nist in a we spend much more

trained on then you probably one would go to implement so

that is especially important for spanish people i think

and don't forget agility gets us because you have to

it is then to the organisers of the recent

and the social program i have three principal our main events a today i think

that evening we have one conversation in data with him we assume

also again forget you tickets we have we have the meeting point is just in

the esplanade in front of the entrance the main entrance you can

we can that at a eighteen the in the evening with what we have a

guided be seat floor in five a quite the past eight to help us nine

and then a cocktail party with my music and everything and meals

and ring source

and the second event is to mow tomorrow as i guided to the all quite

television by one incentive we technology an error in not only that this coolness into

a which is

another interesting point of view but i'll

some recently was completely rebuilt

and is very interesting that we you can go only to the lid node you

on a have to go to the to the each of the ones of course

it to the data to so that these two are two separate events okay

and on thursday we have the countryside directly to the coast of this guy

with a check only one best thing check lease a typical wine from the basque

country use of white wine frames

from the year

okay we will be sit i winery to see how they make a this one

and again don't forget your tickets

always important

and finally i just cross my fingers for their whether to be good because is

not normally be about this whether we have now even in june so probably that

the weather will be good but

i don't know if to more or on thursday maybe use training

not much but for sure on fridays going the right okay

in any case to can take your features and apply them to a to each

other and facebook page is with have you can't the you have the links in

the one side and that's model for my on my part thank you very much

well and now is to time to just have to joe campbell who is going

to say you're some words about

whatever you want

thank you so much it's a pleasure to be here bilbao it's beautiful as is

then you we have fun here the last couple of days and i just it's

breathtaking the venue and so is this facility and it's such a delight to be

here

it is "'cause" committed to odyssey this is that and in a series of workshops

they weren't always call odyssey but we began in nineteen ninety four and of help

them every two years

i odyssey is an is good tutorial and the research workshop and i t r

w under is "'cause" speaker and language characterisation special interest group

of which doug reynolds and i coach here

isca provides the archive for the proceedings in the videos for the series in addition

to student grants and awards

and coordinating with other a special interest groups inesc is well for example the media

you well sit head which has a clever maybe vol a logo is teamed up

with this in the multimedia track this year

we welcome future proposals for the next odyssey

i and following analyses i should say we already have

current set

but we're always looking for new venues for to hold future addressees

and each odyssey that shares leave their in print and do something special and i

think lewis and eduardo for their outstanding work in setting up this odyssey and of

added their unique and innovative features to this event

in discuss support is so strong we even have the president hi suzy here to

be giving the keynote

so it's great to see all these friends and through all these collaborations here the

technology for speaker and language recognition has advanced tremendously within the last ten years

i want i want say that odyssey is solely responsible for those advances it's really

you guys what agree community we have here

and

we this year a new thing is

a very detailed forensics track on thursday

which i'm a honoured to be co chairing with lewis from agnitio

and i also wanna know and in additional is gonna intersection is with interspeech so

at the upcoming interspeech for example

there will be another special of n which will be the second one for forensic

an investigative speaker comparison that will be held on september can which strangely is a

saturday

i will leave some sheets out on the tables this describes the upcoming of n

for interspeech and there's so many other ways the is supports this activity i don't

wanna spend the whole time describing all of them

it's a pleasure to see all of you and i'm happy to be here thank

you

well now is that's fine of rest of the menzies the dino the faculty of

science of and technology of the university of the basque country please

well known nonlinearly only it already arc

be one was but to go then what d c twenty sixteen they speaker and

language recognition workshop data good morning

and welcome to the sky yet it allow would be don't you know university of

the basque country

as the one they factor the of science and technology is my flesh a to

give you do like what makes welcome i decided you all the base you do

you are this take with us in u r t c based you and add

these new ideas you know of vc organise it in this okay is you know

by two spondees could oops

this software technologies working goodwill on university of the basket and the t and the

people a group of university the offset also

i consider a great no galaxy on of harvard university to horse this new set

of idiocy on of sets and the testing meeting what s that's for on all

around ago or on the correct the dc shown and the mighty identification of these

speakers and languages me to be sent

the latest advances in technology and to discuss future developments

the apply program including keynote order item or state of sixty onshore talked except that

are that that's more than having that it receives it is as a way last

grey police entities of in this study for the n c case basenps and then

minutes of law enforcement not need any change agencies

for don't befitting quantities is could i and then an attack p week we probably

seen

seen that these big brother guess for that if you each

in these days

i hope you will enjoy the experience of meeting or that cliques a half after

decorrelating with then in that atmosphere we will promote the reinforcing of computation divers and

we that i in that is to new feels

on the other hand as dean i am proud to see that they the pca

to develop that the faculty of science and technology in the field of the speaker

and language recognition is interesting for investigators for another companies

and we look for like to welcome sewn of doing the future as five what

is it teens in the frame of song european union programs

this m i

in this global work we had involve

type of intonation and meetings are intent is also for the beta knowledge of what

that contest all the voice of life and for that they that understanding of feature

there

so

and a set of feet computer science

is somebody's between c really say she owns quantity but in this dct to the

maintenance of peace and dialogue between different cultures set this is the universal language that

help us communicate a pca the value of how would be finance

and b

people for another common sense that then gullibility bit more than what one based on

a c and of governance

with this year along that it can meet the man is i don't we yes

it is you don't of scientific or a test

i couldn't i would like to us but it is my greatest thing and considerations

for they but if a source of the software technologies working group of they faculty

of science and technology for they are constantly that casey on the every like to

dean and reset quality

set of institutional responsibility the at a for in the name of silence

we

in advance times

well and that of the a weighted of popular media culture

science and directional for what i don't think that down again stupid piece used thinking

irrationality

unfortunately anti scientific that's it you at the band based on the premise that at

least not walls via for the one that standard and explain the complex

when nothing i'll explain a she on or rather simplistic explanation can be lost

through a convenient only case you on is that the g

therefore

given the decline of s unity the in more than a society a society got

better than it mostly by people five move scientific comments

we must call on the responsibility and modality ratio one of each one of us

to get involved in that defines or dignity is achieved line of you wanna four

seconds

that it coming isolates you on a dependence on god mine and i speeding why

not to participate in on the decision making is stacked yes of our society contributing

to nice improvement mine

do you dorothy it affinity that manifest until only got maintaining identity thing into well

also understand what is needed or d c there's mean give peace a scalar that

enabled a morse lost but if a so this is hardly ever order to get

forty days yet wider the gate that okay and at cut all the important case

for the thought better clustering the own voice say on that value that

what has gone f yes

now i we do that the k to find that were wall the participant for

and of indices

i would accompany the basque country

as you only know it's very small all company that betty for each internet these

units with unknown language one of the l data languages and which is more important

and then be well we fourteen people quite interested in knowing be what different befitting

companies

as we had provided with a very open minded

that's why we had a hobby to have the opportunity to meet you and do

shared a window and you better c and i would factivity with you don't this

week

finally i hope you we don't saying you're always famous cooking

basket cooking a what has been done e i know what you right hand use

a one

good morning i wouldn't that

thank

so thank you sir a and now is the time to apply fowler busy rector

of the result of that universe of the basque country place for mental

zero for the usage of those are sixteen

two

i think middleware show

president of the international speech communication association

the kind of the if you if you are

it would almost zero them is a living will still

wheelers factor speaking just about as a the that can only be you know for

factor because it is a very a language in fact there are only two five

use of language that the are not and there will be and in your and

this is one of the which is actually the other one is the final one

sure you to have shown song

sense on some worst you but you are very a more image with speech

only a very are is something is very political university of it i that be

sky and it only data

split a local university that one two corpus they really about three that they get

progress i-vector encircle would they are the only one of the are watching a something

but they wanna with the core like it may be derived immigrant exactly

showing was saying that good morning i worst one column because of the university of

the basque country to disney a real issue of international or we see congress or

which

if the circulation for us to of course of this meeting we are one or

two i-vectors course of this great event

i would therefore invite you to work harder from all this week but also provided

a lot of our universally on a work under a what our culture on a

what people are

but the residual personal system is being held

at the university of the basque country is not by chance

there are prestigious blows working only characterisation only the unification of a speaker some languages

both

you know what is it is yours and you know that institution grows the ones

there's a more regular shoes working group of the university of the basque country specifically

use one of them

i'm pretty close to worse at the university of models are three hundred kilometres away

the people are

is probability pr some of course possible

for the realisation of this congress in this respect

i would like to highlight the quality of the results

it is also one satisfy shown because

thanks to this work

within the rationale recognition on these new edition of policy is being carried out here

you know what country

results in this field the field programmable multicoloured elicitation identification of a speaker some languages

is a logical consequence of enormous increase that both

the pollutes you're an estimation of although we see all contents cussing

the visible the development of new technology cost has practically the conventional for huge library

with computer based content the volume of which is growing response

because surely or is one part of the volume of compares of comments you male

labelers on physical looks

the volume of all the result compress it should be that you requires a new

force of management

in the same way that here's increasingly more applications and users

the investigation of a speaker something which use cross country as phase of development

the filler forestry

via method we shall pronounce safety politically situations on many more

increasingly morphemes increase these new technology fines in application

it is highly probable that we will see for prices in coming years because these

users will be responded every more and you are the ones that no it

that's all for me my best wishes for the working six euros not just are

now and i would like to really going to again to the basque country they

were sure well you see two thousand and sixteen is now open might media scales

were not require a big thank you very much

sometimes you remember i i'm going to say some words that i four got for

what for

sign a lot and knowledge men's that side

i have to sit

well we are the nicer system the upper see a definitive support from the university

of the less country

the basque government under spun is a thematic network on a speaker speech technologies

the sponsorship of zeros logic

the medial and the other log on the support of risk on the bilbao cd

comes to

a we also pesetas support from the risk i added i stuff

the university that was currently information and communication technology stuff

whose recording decisions and the universe of the basque country on me study for stuff

which got been ask with registrations payments public funding

and we also wanted to note that the to me i just the their personalities

the spokes of some sort of the local organising committee

with a lot with like to thank all the ut s you wanna members who

have worked tirelessly the success of discourse about of i don't know i dunno use

calm c was in channel so seizing charts of accommodation registration and accounting from a

model who is the responsible for the that website

me could be naughty kernel was responsible for the venue recordings some merchandising

many of the s who is responsible for social networks

it can multi-core young this which is a responsible for their satisfaction should wait

and phones update are not gonna miguel who is responsible for the technical problem implications

on a with about the data of course

myself which a

i don't know i think doing everything

we also thought they want to use on that one file if somebody about the

you know i dunno

for the help on with a logistic son at the venue

okay find a finally i would like to apologise for the realise misunderstandings restrictions so

there

that you all of you

a traffic conduct while making registration payments hotel reservations set are of course we didn't

want to we want a that to happen but

it happened

we could in anticipate for that but considerably source especially when they were you don't

or rate

one thing is for sure we keep on working for the success of be so

all you say this for base ball thank you very much
