From Sound to Sense: 50+ Years of Speech Research

描述（由申请人提供）： 一次名为“从声音到意义：语音交流五十年的发现”的会议将于 2004 年 6 月 11 日至 13 日在马萨诸塞州剑桥的麻省理工学院举行。过去 50 年的重要研究将由在此期间做出主要贡献的研究人员进行审查，其中大部分得到了 NIH 的支持。其他受邀演讲者将介绍几个领域当前工作的样本，并以与专业可能不在这些领域的科学家交谈的方式进行介绍。我们将鼓励海报展示者遵循相同的主题。参与者包括 20 位受邀演讲者，他们都是该领域的领导者，三场海报会议的多达 180 名演讲者，以及演讲研究界的广泛样本参与者 - 并鼓励学生参与。涵盖的主题包括音韵学和语音学；语音声学；演讲 感知；策划与制作；发展、病理学和补救；和语音技术。最后的总结演讲和论坛将综合会议上提出的想法，重点是未来的研究如何从所代表的子专业之间的交叉融合中受益。请求对本次会议提供部分支持。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A meeting, "From Sound to Sense: Fifty+ Years of Discoveries in Speech Communication," will be held on June 11-13, 2004 at MIT in Cambridge, MA. Significant research over the past five decades will be reviewed by investigators who have been major contributors over this period, much of it with support from NIH. Other invited speakers will present a sampling of current work in several areas, in ways that speak to scientists whose specialties may be outside of these areas. Poster presenters will be encouraged to follow the same theme. Participants include 20 invited speakers who are leaders in the field, up to 180 presenters at three poster sessions, and a broad sample of the speech research community as attendees -- with encouragement of student participation. Topics to be covered include Phonology and Phonetics; Speech Acoustics; Speech Perception; Planning and Production; Development, Pathologies, and Remediation; and Speech Technology. A final summarizing address and forum will synthesize the ideas presented at the conference, with a focus on how future research may benefit from cross-fertilization among the represented sub-specialties. Partial support for this conference is requested.
