A Workshop for Junior Female Researchers in Speech Science and Technology

研讨会的动机是许多语音科学和技术领域的女性研究人员意识到，在语音职业的“管道”中，初级女性研究人员似乎相对较少。这个问题通过提供一个场所来解决，在这里，语音科学和技术专业的学生可以相互展示他们的工作，也可以向资深女性研究人员展示他们的工作，而资深女性则可以向学生描述自己的研究和职业经历并指导他们。该研讨会面向目前从事语音科学与技术工作的女本科生和硕士生。它在Interspeech 2016举行，包括与资深女性语音科学和技术研究人员的小组讨论，学生海报展示和指导会议。该研讨会旨在培养尚未致力于获得语音科学或技术领域博士学位但在其学院和大学中对这些领域的个人或小组项目有一定研究经验的本科或硕士水平的女性对语音技术领域研究的兴趣。

The motivation for the workshop is the realization on the part of many women researchers in the speech science and technology fields that there seem to be relatively few junior women researchers in the 'pipeline' to careers in speech. This issue is addressed by providing a venue where students in speech science and technology can present their work to each other and to senior women researchers, and where senior women can describe their own research and career experience to students and mentor them. The workshop is intended for women undergraduate and masters students who are currently working in speech science and technology. It is held at Interspeech 2016, featuring panel discussions with senior female speech science and technology researchers, student poster presentations, and a mentoring session. The workshop is designed to foster interest in research in the field of speech technology in women at the undergraduate or masters level who have not yet committed to getting a PhD in speech science or technology areas but who have had some research experience in their college and universities on individual or group projects in those areas.
