Speech Communication

Speech Communication is a publication of the International Speech Communication Association (ISCA) and the European Association for Signal Processing (EURASIP). It is an interdisciplinary journal whose primary objectives are to present a forum for the advancement of human and human-machine speech communication science; to stimulate cross-fertilization between different fields of this domain; and to contribute towards the rapid and wide diffusion of scientifically sound contributions in this domain.

Research areas include:

• Basics of oral communication and dialogue: modelling of production and perception processes; phonetics and phonology; syntax; semantics and pragmatics of speech communication; cognitive aspects.
• Models and tools for language learning: functional organisation and developmental models of human language capabilities; acquisition and rehabilitation of spoken language; speech & hearing defects and aids.
  
• Speech signal processing: analysis, coding, transmission, enhancement, robustness to noise.
• Models for automatic speech communication: speech recognition; language identification; speaker recognition; speech synthesis; oral dialogue.
• Development and evaluation tools: monolingual and multilingual databases; assessment methodologies; specialised hardware and software packages; field experiments; market development.
• Multimodal human computer interface: using speech I/O in combination with other modalities, e.g., gesture and handwriting.
• Forensic speech science: forensic voice comparison; forensic analysis of disputed utterances; speaker identification by earwitnesses.

Computer Speech and Language

Computer Speech & Language is an official publication of the International Speech Communication Association (ISCA).  It publishes reports of original research related to the recognition, understanding, production, coding and mining of speech and language.

The speech and language sciences have a long history, but it is only relatively recently that large-scale implementation of and experimentation with complex models of speech and language processing has become feasible. Such research is often carried out somewhat separately by practitioners of artificial intelligence, computer science, electronic engineering, information retrieval, linguistics, phonetics, or psychology.

The journal provides a focus for this work, and encourages an interdisciplinary approach to speech and language research and technology. Thus contributions from all of the related fields are welcomed in the form of reports of theoretical or experimental studies, tutorials, and brief correspondence pertaining to models and their implementation, or reports of fundamental research leading to the improvement of such models.

Research areas include:

• Algorithms and models for speech recognition and synthesis
• Natural language processing for speech understanding and generation
• Statistical computational linguistics
• Computational models of discourse and dialogue
• Information retrieval, extraction and summarization
• Speaker and language recognition
• Computational models of speech production and perception
• Signal processing for speech analysis, enhancement and transformation
• Evaluation of human and computer system performance
