Dear colleagues,

Recently, we organized the first 'Spoken CALL Shared Task' 
[https://regulus.unige.ch/spokencallsharedtask/].
Results were presented at a special session of the SLaTE-2017 workshop 
[http://www.slate2017.org/].

The first 'Spoken CALL Shared Task' was successful, people expressed 
interest in a follow-up, and that is why we are now organizing a 2nd 
edition of the 'Spoken CALL Shared Task' 
[http://tiny.cc/2nd-spoken-CALL-task ~ 
https://regulus.unige.ch/spokencallsharedtask_2ndedition/]. The second 
version of the task will offer improved resources. In particular, it 
will make available the highest-performing speech recognizer from the 
first version of the task, and about twice as much training data.

The preliminary schedule of the 2nd 'Spoken CALL Shared Task' is as follows:
• 27 Oct 2017, Training data and resources released
• 31 Jan 2018, Release test data
• 7 Feb 2018, Deadline for submission of entries
• 23 Mar 2018, Interspeech submission deadline
• 2-6 Sep 2018, Presentations at a special session of Interspeech-2018

If you are interested (even if you are not sure that you will [be able 
to] participate), Subscribe to the Newsletter at 
https://regulus.unige.ch/spokencallsharedtask_2ndedition/,
and/or send an email to Johanna.Gerlach at unige.ch. There are no 
obligations at all, this is just to have an initial idea about who is 
interested.

Feel free to forward this announcement. If you have suggestions about 
where we can send this announcement, please let us know.

Regards,
The 'Spoken CALL Shared Task' team
