The Member Election Subcommittee of the Speech and Language Technical Committee (SLTC) is seeking nominations for new members for a 3-year term (2019-2021). Nominations should be submitted by filling out the web form at https://www.icsi.berkeley.edu/icsi/ieee_form. The nomination deadline is October 20, 2018.
New member candidates can be self-nominated or nominated by current SLTC members. Members will serve a term of three years. Past SLTC members are eligible to be nominated for a second term. Current SLTC members may also be nominated for a second consecutive term, but would then not be eligible to vote in this new member election. Additional terms are allowed after leaving the SLTC, but at least a 3-year gap in service is required.
We are seeking a diverse candidate pool to reflect current and future trends of our community, and especially welcome first-time applicants that complement the current set of strengths of the SLTC.
New members must be willing to review papers that are submitted to the Society's conferences within the area of the SLTC, review papers for workshops owned or co-owned by the SLTC, serve in the subcommittees established by the SLTC, and perform other duties as assigned. New SLTC members will be elected by current members to fill openings as needed by technical area. The election results will be finalized by November 9, 2018.
The rights and duties of an SLTC member are described here: http://www.signalprocessingsociety.org/technical-committees/list/sl-tc/
The following are nominee requirements:
- The candidate must be a member of the IEEE Signal Processing Society. Non-IEEE-members that are members of professional associations in related fields are encouraged to contribute to the SLTC as Affiliate Members, and can apply athttps://signalprocessingsociety.org/get-involved/affiliate-membership-f….
- The candidate should be willing to serve if elected. This means active participation including prompt paper reviews for four ICASSP conferences (2019-2022), active participation in accomplishing SLTC sub-committee duties, and best efforts to attend meetings and responding appropriately to action items.
