Call for Papers

AVSP is a uniquely interdisciplinary conference, focusing on the effects of auditory and visual speech information on human perception, machine recognition, and human-machine interaction. AVSP conferences attract many researchers from various fields, such as psychology, computer engineering, neuroscience, linguistics, and robotic engineering. AVSP is a satellite workshop of ICPhS 2019, the 19th International Congress of the Phonetic Sciences.

The AVSP conference will be held in Melbourne, Australia, August 10 &11, 2019.
