We are pleased to announce the Second International Workshop on Speech, Music and Mind, 2019 (SMM19): Detecting and Influencing Mental States with Audio. This workshop will bring together, from both academia and industry, communities interested in understanding the interplay between the mind and sound/music/speech. This workshop will focus on detecting and influencing mental states, with an emphasis on multi-modal approaches with diverse applications across culture, languages and music. Topics relating to fundamental questions such as the clarity in the definition of the state of mind of an individual, how it varies with time, its short-term and long-term effects etc. are also of interest.
The workshop will be held on 14th September 2019, one day before INTERSPEECH 2019 commences. We invite you to submit relevant contributions to the workshop before the deadlines and encourage you to attend the workshop at the Technical University of Vienna (TU Wien), Vienna, Austria.
