ICASSP2016 will be held in Shanghai, Mar. 20-25, 2016. May we bring to your attention that the ICASSP2016 Tutorial, Special Session and Show&Tell proposals are now open for submission (www.icassp2016.org). Submission deadline for regular papers will be September 25, 2015.
The ICASSP 2016 Technical Co-Chairs: P. C. Ching and Dominic Ho
P. C. Ching is with the Chinese Univ. of Hong Kong, Hong Kong. Dominic Ho is with Univ. of Missouri, USA.
Following on the tremendous success of SLT 2014, the SPS-SLTC invites proposals to host the 2016 IEEE Workshop on Spoken Language Technology (SLT-2016). Past SLT workshops have fostered a collegiate atmosphere through a thoughtful selection of venues, thus offering a unique opportunity for researchers to interact and learn.
The proposal should include the information outlined below.
Part 1: The historic acoustic-phonetic collection
Information Technology at the TU Dresden goes back to Heinrich Barkhausen (1881–1956), the “father of the electron valve“, who taught from 1911 to 1953. Speech research in a narrower sense started with the development of a vocoder in the 1950s. Walter Tscheschner (1927–2004) performed his extensive investigations on the speech signal using components of the vocoder. In 1969, a scientific unit for Communication and Measurement was founded in Dresden.

Dear colleagues,
Thanks to your contributions, we have received a possibly record-breaking number of 1,458 submissions to INTERSPEECH 2015, organized in Dresden on September 6-10. The TPC headed by Bernd Möbius and Elmar Nöth, together with our 40 area chairs and nearly 1,000 reviewers, are currently finalizing the review process, but we are already quite sure that INTERSPEECH 2015 will provide an exciting program of special sessions and special events, keynote speakers, show & tell demos, as well as a strong scientific oral and poster backbone program.
The IEEE Signal Processing Cup aims to provide undergraduate students with opportunities to form teams and work together to solve a challenging and interesting real-world problem using signal processing techniques. The final round of the 2016 SP Cup was held in March 2016 at the 2016 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP) in Shanghai, China. Three top teams from the preliminary round held before the conference were selected and invited to present their work at ICASSP 2016.
The past decade has seen a tremendous growth in multimedia systems and applications in various areas ranging from surveillance to social media. While these systems and applications have been instrumental in improving the way of life for the end users; in the process the people's privacy might be put at risk. In particular, in most social networking websites, users upload their information without any guarantees on privacy.
Data hiding is the science and art of imperceptibly embedding some secret data, e.g., marks or messages, into a host media. The secret data are detected and extracted at a receiving end for various purposes. Data hiding has been the topic of tremendous research efforts during the past decade from both academia and industry for a diverse range of applications such as media copyright protection, content authentication, digital rights management, media system monitoring, and covert communications.
