IEEE-USA Awards and Recognition

Did you know that IEEE-USA has authorized the presentation of Awards and Recognition for the purpose of recognizing excellence, outstanding service and contributions in furtherance of its objectives? The awards are administered by IEEE-USA's Awards and Recognition Committee and have been approved by the IEEE Awards Board and the IEEE Board of Directors. IEEE-USA Awards are given to recognize professionalism, technical achievement, and literary contributions to public awareness and understanding of the engineering profession in the United States.

Reusing Speech Techniques for Video Semantic Indexing

Many techniques developed in speech research have been successfully employed in other fields, such as automatic video semantic indexing. In this application, a user submits a textual input query for an desired object or a scene to a search system, which returns video shots that include the object or scene. Recently, a new method using Gaussian-mixture model (GMM) supervectors and support vector machines (SVMs) was proven to be very effective. In this method, speech technology such as speaker verification and adaptation techniques plays very important roles.

President's Message -- Awards and Recognition

How to recognize those who deserve the honor? How to address all the aspects of fairness and conflict of interest? The IEEE SPS Executive Committee (ExCom) decided to tackle this award-and-recognition issue on two fronts: the nomination process and the selection process. It is believed that only through a right and just process can we bring about the prestige and respect of an award!
