Dear readers,
Welcome to the Spring 2016 edition of the IEEE Speech and Language Processing Technical Committee's Newsletter, the last edition that I edited in this function as a member of the SLTC.
Shanghainese, also known as the Shanghai or Hu dialect, is a form of Wu dialect spoken in the central districts of Shanghai and in the surrounding region. Wu speakers represented about 8% of the total Chinese population by 1984. Shanghainese is a proper representative dialect of Northern Wu and in English "Shanghainese" sometimes refers to all Wu dialects. With nearly 14 million speakers, it is also the largest single form of Wu Chinese. Shanghainese, like other Wu dialects, is largely unintelligible with other varieties of Chinese such as Mandarin.
SPS offers a variety of resources to its Student, Graduate Student, and Young Professional members, connecting them to career development opportunities, networking events, conference discounts, travel grants, and more.
Technical Committee Review Schedule
Technical Committees will be subject to a formal review. Each Technical Committee will undergo a review at least once every five years with the frequency of the review decided on by the TC Review Committee and the Vice President-Technical Directions at the end of the review process.
Each year, the IEEE Board of Directors confers the grade of Fellow on up to one-tenth percent of the members. To qualify for consideration, an individual must have been a Member, normally for five years or more, and a Senior Member at the time for nomination to Fellow. The grade of Fellow recognizes unusual distinction in IEEE’s designated fields.
