Special session on BICS 2016: Deep and/or Sparse Neural Models for Speech and Language Processing

Introduction

Large-scale deep neural models, e.g., deep neural networks (DNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN), have demonstrated significant success in solving various challenging tasks of speech and language processing (SLP), including, amongst others, speech recognition, speech synthesis, document classification, question answering. This growing impact corroborates the neurobiological evidence concerning the presence of layer-wise deep processing in the human brain. On the other hand, sparse coding representation has also gained similar success in SLP, particularly in signal processing, demonstrating sparsity as another important neurobiological characteristic.

Traditionally, deep learning and sparse coding have been studied by different research communities. This special session on BICS 2016 (http://bii.ia.ac.cn/bics-2016/index.html) aims to offer a timely opportunity to researchers in the two areas to share their complementary results and methods, and help mutually promote development of new theories and methodologies for hybrid deep and sparsity based models, particularly in the field of speech and language processing.
