3rd International Workshop on Vocal Interactivity in-and-between Humans, Animals and Robots (VIHAR-2021)

3rd International Workshop on Vocal Interactivity in-and-between Humans, Animals and Robots (VIHAR-2021)

13th-15th October 2021
Paris, France (Virtual Only)

http://vihar-2021.vihar.org
VIHAR-2021 is the third international workshop on Vocal Interactivity in-and-between Humans, Animals and Robots. Taking place virtually in Paris, France (online only) on 13-15 October 2021, VIHAR-2021 aims to bring together researchers studying vocal-based interaction in-and-between humans, animals and robots from a variety of different fields. This includes speech, animal vocalisations or other acoustic interaction. VIHAR-2021 will provide an opportunity to share and discuss theoretical insights, best practices, tools and methodologies, and to identify common principles underpinning vocal behaviour in a multi-disciplinary environment.

The registration is free but mandatory.

The workshop follows the success of previous International workshops on Vocal Interactivity in-and-between Humans, Animals and Robots (VIHAR-2017 and VIHAR-2019).

We invite original submissions of abstracts in all areas of vocal interactivity. Suggested workshop topics may include, but are not limited to the following areas:
  * Physiological and morphological comparisons between vocal systems in animals
  * Properties and functions of animal signals
  * Evolution of vocal interactivity
  * Vocal imitation and learning
  * Conveyance of emotion
  * Comparative analyses of human and animal vocalisations
  * Use of vocalisation
  * Vocal interactivity between non-conspecifics
  * Spoken language systems
  * Technology-based research methods
  * Vocal interaction with robots

To present your work/ideas at VIHAR you will need to submit:

• Title
• Authors (and institutional affiliations)
• Abstract (max 500 words; you are also encouraged to include one image/diagram)
• One sentence stating the relevance to VIHAR
• Does this work relate to: Humans? Animals? Robots? (Multiple selections are certainly permitted!)

The number of proposals from each presenter (“first author”) is limited to two. The number of proposals that a co-author can be involved in is limited to five.

A panel of experts will curate the submissions in order to ensure they belong to the scope of the workshop.

A compilation of the abstracts will be published online on the workshop website in the form of abstracts-only proceedings.

The authors will have the opportunity to submit papers to special issue organized in a journal after the VIHAR workshop.

Colloque international : “La voix dans les chansons : approches musicologiques”

Colloque international “La voix dans les chansons. Approches musicologiques”
3-4 mars 2016
Université Lyon 2 – Université Paris-Sorbonne

Organisation : Catherine Rudent (Paris-Sorbonne, IReMus) / Céline Chabot-Canet (Lyon 2, Passage XX XXI)
Programme du colloque

L’étude de la voix chantée a longtemps été centrée sur la voix lyrique occidentale et, secondairement, sur certaines techniques vocales exceptionnelles présentes dans des cultures de tradition orale – souvent extra-européennes. La littérature sur la voix chantée comportait aussi des textes abondants et importants sur la voix au regard de la psychanalyse. Mais depuis les années 1990, à l’échelle internationale, se sont fait jour d’autres courants de recherches, qui élargissent leurs préoccupations en direction de l’ensemble des répertoires occidentaux, incluant les musiques populaires phonographiques. En travaillant sur les aspects objectivables de ces voix chantées diverses, ils en ont étendu et précisé la caractérisation physiologique et l’analyse acoustique. Ces nouveaux courants de l’analyse vocale ont alors enrichi ce qu’il est convenu d’appeler popular music studies : ils ont permis de réfléchir aux voix chantées d’une manière précise et solidement argumentée, et en ont alimenté des approches sémiotiques (Tagg, Lacasse, Lefrançois), ou stylistiques (Chabot-Canet, Rudent). Ils ont bénéficié des avancées technologiques dans le domaine de l’étude physiologique et de l’analyse acoustique et reposent ainsi étroitement sur la collaboration entre sciences exactes et sciences humaines et sociales.
Le colloque “La voix dans les chansons. Approches musicologiques” se propose, en premier lieu, de faire un bilan d’étape des résultats ainsi acquis. Son deuxième objectif est de souligner les perspectives d’avenir de ce champ de recherche actuellement en grand développement, non seulement en France mais internationalement. A ce colloque participent, outre des chercheurs internationalement reconnus, des doctorants issus de diverses équipes de recherches et de disciplines multiples, dont le travail est en passe de contribuer aux avancées dans ce domaine.
Que ce soit sur le mode du bilan d’acquis ou de l’ouverture des perspectives de la recherche, ce colloque vise donc à montrer comment la musicologie en général, et les popular music studies en particulier, peuvent bénéficier des outils scientifiques et des connaissances actuels de l’analyse acoustique et de la physiologie de la voix, pour une compréhension musicologique de la voix chantée dans le contexte foisonnant et hétérogène des musiques populaires phonographiques ou popular music.

Workshop on Affective Social Speech Signals – WASSS’201

**** Workshop  on Affective Social Speech Signals    WASSS’201  ****

Grenoble, 22-23 august 2013 –    wasss-2013.imag.fr

Satellite of Interspeech 2013 http://www.interspeech2013.org/

The WASSSS workshop will take place at the University of Grenoble, approximately 1.5 hour by train, bus or car from Lyon. It will be held over 2 days: the Thursday and Friday before Interspeech.).

This workshop will provide a meeting place for the  different communities interested into why, how and when speech is used by humans for signalling socio-affective functions. It will be dedicated to building interdisciplinary research and cross-fertilization between the  different scientific communities All areas related to human communication are concerned: language and speech computing, robotics or virtual agents, as well as linguistics, phonetics, pragmatics, didactics, sociology, psychology, neuropsychology, ethology, biology, etc. The organisation of affect is complex – from low-level emotion automatic or reflexive  processing to higher cognitive levels , culture-dependent, language-organized, controlled processing. Speech can signal some very rich social and emotional cues, reflecting personality, social role, the cultural/language  specificities in all human interactions and more broadly  in human communication.  This workshop will be especially the place where “social emotions” will be debated from different points of view, with different meanings depending on the domain.

— The intended contributions can be related, but not limited to:

–       social emotions, social affect: theories or models, how and why signalled
–       social affect signals (e.g. expressions of automatic emotions and more social emotions, attitudes, intentions, mental states, cognitive processing, feelings…): corpus,  description, annotation, etc
–       the cultural contrast of affective social speech
–       psychological/neuropsychological models and cues for social affect processing
–       social and anthropological models for analysing affective processing and
–        emotions expressions
–       social affect in Human Machine Interaction and dialog
–       multimodality of the social signals in face to face speech interactions
–       the place of social speech affect in L2 learning
–        the challenge of social signals for robots and embodied virtual agents
–       social affect in  speech technologies: speech synthesis, recognition or translation
–       speech social affect within personality, social rule and culture
–       lexicon of social affect in  speech
–       sentiment analysis/opinion mining in  speech
–       etc

******* Important dates:

– paper submission:   22 april 2103
– acceptation notification: 17 june 2013
– final submission:  22 july 2013
– early registration: 27 june 2013
