It is our pleasure to invite you to Goa, India, for the Second IEEE/ACL Spoken Language Technology workshop. The goal of the SLT workshop is to bring the speech and language communities together to discuss and present advances and challenges in the area of spoken language processing.
This time we are hosting it in India, a land of ancient civilization which is witnessing a tremendous infusion of new information technologies fomenting knowledge generation & dissemination. India is also a land of rich culture and diversity. Over 28 languages and thousands of dialects are spoken here which makes India an ideal destination for speech and language experts and researchers of the world. Come to SLT08 to witness and interact with local researchers over the spoken language problems the various multilingual societies of India and rest of the world facing today including language understanding, dialog, mining, translation, multimodal, summarization, user interface, topic detection, and generation.
Goa, also called the "pearl of the orient", is a tourist paradise, nested between the blue Arabian Sea, its white sand beaches seas, the swaying palms and the lush forested hills. Besides the natural beauty, the fabulous beaches and sunshine, travelers to Goa love the laid-back, peaceful, warm and friendly nature of the Goan people. We hope that Goa will be a perfect destination for SLT-08 and we look forward to see you in the workshop!
