    There are some outstanding Special Sessions this year, and I've taken the liberty of listing them - and their organisers. Do consider submitting to the #CfP - it's rare that #Interspeech makes it to Australia and we all want to make the most of it.

  9. For the #MerlionChallenge at #Interspeech we’ll be asking teams to train a #SpeechProc / #AI system that can guess which language is which (Task 1: Language ID) and when (Task 2: Language Diarization)!

    👉Challenge audio is Zoom recordings with English and/or Mandarin Chinese
    👉Audio for development matches audio for evaluation 😗👌
