Meeting Description:
DiSS-LPSS Joint Workshop 2010 is a satellite meeting of INTERSPEECH
2010 that focuses on speech disfluency and spontaneous speech.
DiSS is a series of interdisciplinary workshops (Berkeley, 1999; Edinburgh,
2001; Goteborg, 2003; Aix-en-Provence, 2005), which have been
addressing disfluency - stalls, hesitations, and self-repairs - in normal
spontaneous speech from a wide range of disciplines, from automatic
speech recognition to linguistic analysis and psycholinguistics.
LPSS, another interdisciplinary workshop on spontaneous speech, took
place in Taiwan in 2006, focusing on a broader range of phenomena in
spontaneous speech including automatic speech recognition, prosody,
spoken dialogues, and disfluency.
The 5th Workshop on Disfluency in Spontaneous Speech
The 2nd International Symposium on Linguistic Patterns in Spontaneous
Speech

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
