[Don Osborn]

FYI. This call for participation may be of interest to some. Its focus is
Asian languages, but contributions on "under-resourced languages" from other
regions are welcome. (Seen on Chinese at kenyon.edu)

The STLU meeting is a technical conference focused on spoken language
processing for under-resourced languages. This first workshop will focus on
Asian languages, and the idea is to mainly (but not exclusively) target
languages of the area (Vietnamese, Khmer, Lao, Chinese dialects, Thai,
etc.). However, all contributions on other under-resourced languages of the
world are warmly welcomed. The workshop aims at gathering researchers
working on:

* ASR, synthesis and speech translation for under-resourced languages

* portability issues

* fast resources acquisition (speech, text, lexicons, parallel corpora)

* spoken language processing for languages with rich morphology

* spoken language processing for languages without separators

* spoken language processing for languages without writing system

* ...
