Vacancy: Postdoctoral ASR – Speech Researcher<br>
on the project BLISS: Behaviour-based Language-Interactive
Speaking Systems<br>
Application deadline: 28 October 2018<br>
<br>
The Centre of Language and Speech Technology (CLST) at Radboud
University Nijmegen has a vacancy for a post-doctoral speech
technology researcher. BLISS [<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://hstrik.ruhosting.nl/bliss/">http://hstrik.ruhosting.nl/bliss/</a>]
combines research on how using Big Data and information extraction
can make a substantial contribution to self-management and
improvement of the individual health situation. In this project we
will build a smart, personalized, spoken dialogue system (SDS)
supporting self-management that is able to meaningfully
communicate with people about issues regarding their personal
health, well-being and happiness using Automatic Speech
Recognition (ASR). For this SDS we need to personalise the ASR
component to adapt to speaker variation and to topic changes in
dialogue. As a researcher you will combine knowledge of Deep
Neural Networks (DNNs, Kaldi) based ASR with experience in SDS.<br>
