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

Date: September 25-26, 2010
Place: Hongo Campus, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo

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 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

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.
