Interspeech is the world’s largest and most comprehensive conference on the science and technology of spoken language processing. Interspeech conferences emphasize interdisciplinary approaches addressing all aspects of speech science and technology, ranging from basic theories to advanced applications.

Interspeech 2024 will feature oral and poster sessions, plenary talks by internationally renowned experts, tutorials, special sessions and challenges, show & tell, exhibits, and satellite events.

The theme of Interspeech 2024 is Speech and Beyond. For decades, our focus has been on enhancing speech technologies across various dimensions: spontaneous speech, large vocabulary, different conditions, robustness in adverse acoustic environments, multiple languages, speaker verification, and language identification. The organizing committee of Interspeech 2024 is committed to the advancement of speech technology in the wider sense while seeking new challenges. As technology evolves, we are ready to embrace the next set of challenges and explore new application domains. A non-exhaustive list of topics that goes beyond the traditional Interspeech topics includes: speech and health, animal voice recognition and understanding, speech for memory and heritage, voice communication across ages, and human-machine interaction, including gaming, virtual and augmented reality, and robot audition. We hope you will join our vision on “Speech and Beyond”.

Paper Submission

Interspeech 2024 seeks original and innovative papers covering all aspects of speech science and technology. The language of the conference is English, so papers must be written in English. The paper length is up to four pages in two columns with an additional page for references and acknowledgments only. Submitted papers must conform to the format defined in the paper kit provided on the conference website (and as an overleaf template) and may optionally be accompanied by multimedia files. Interspeech 2024 will follow a double-blind review process so papers submitted for review should not reveal the identity or affiliation of the authors. Authors must declare that their contributions are original and that they have not submitted their papers elsewhere for publication. Papers must be submitted electronically and will be evaluated through rigorous peer review on the basis of novelty and originality, technical correctness, clarity of presentation, key strengths, and quality of references. The Technical Programme Committee will decide which papers to include in the conference programme using peer review as the primary criterion, with secondary criteria of addressing the conference theme, and diversity across the programme as a whole.

Blue Sky Track

This year, we also encourage the authors to consider submitting to the new BLUE SKY track of highly innovative papers in fields or directions that have not yet been explored. Large-scale experimental evaluation will not be required for papers in this track. Incremental work will not be accepted. If you think your work satisfies these requirements, please consider submitting a paper to this challenging and competitive track. Please note that to achieve the objectives of this BLUE SKY track, we will ask the most experienced reviewers (mainly our ISCA Fellow members) to assess the proposals.
