Meeting Description:

SEFOS is dedicated to the physiological patterns, acoustic signals, and
communicative functions of breathing, pausing and the voice - in human-human
as well as in human-machine interaction. SEFOS aims to bring together
researchers from different disciplines, such as phonetics, phonology,
psychology, medicine, acoustics, speech technology, and computer linguistics.

Technology, Stockholm, Sweden.

Call for Papers:

We invite contributions on all the various aspects of breathing, pausing, and
the voice. Reflecting the cross-disciplinary nature of these fields of
research, we are particularly pleased about submissions from the entire speech
sciences and beyond, i.e., for example, medicine, rhetoric, technology, music,
and zoology. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

- acoustic and physiological analyses of speech breathing
- breathing, pausing, and phonation patterns under different mental,
emotional, physical conditions
- pathological/clinical aspects of breathing, pausing, and the voice,
including pain.
- personality traits (including attractiveness), speaking styles, and their
links to breathing, pausing, and the voice
- breathing, pausing, and/or voice patterns in human-machine-interaction and
speech technology in general
- interrelations between breathing, pausing, and the voice
- interrelations with other features of prosody, such as F0 and intensity
- silent, fluent, and disfluent pauses, hesitation phenomena
- breathing, pausing and interaction, turn-taking, discourse control
- forms and functions of voice quality in communication
- singing and its relation to phonation and breathing
- new technological or methodological development on the analysis of
breathing, pausing, and the voice
- recourses and corpora

Submissions to SEFOS should be made in the form of extended abstracts,
consisting of 2 pages of text plus a third page for (additional) figures and
references. The abstract template is provided on the SEFOS website:
