Interspeech 2017

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I would like to welcome you to Interspeech 2017 in Stockholm, Sweden!

The conference theme will be “Situated interaction”. The overall goal is to provide a broad approach to speech communication issues integrating speech technology and pragmatic aspects of human conversational speech communication behaviour in different interaction contexts. All branches of speech communication science are welcome – be it human-machine interaction or human-human interaction in groups of different sizes, face-to-face or remote, exploring the affordances of speech communication technology.

Interspeech 2017 will be held at Stockholm University campus, which is situated on the northern part of The Royal National City Park, served by Stockholm’s metropolitan’s good public transportation network. I look forward to welcome you to a scientifically inspiring event enhanced by the natural and harmonic environment of Stockholm University campus and I hope Interspeech 2017 will be a highly positive scientific, social and aesthetical experience for all the participants.
