Audio Analysis Workshop 2024

You are cordially invited to participate in the 11th edition of our annual Audio Analysis Workshop. This year, held as a half-day satellite workshop to the International Workshop on Acoustic Signal Enhancement (IWAENC) 2024.

The primary aim of the workshop is to facilitate a view into and a discussion of on-going research in a closed forum consisting of both academic and industrial partners. There will be no proceedings for the workshop, so presenters are welcome to show either on-going research or recently published research within the theme of the workshop.

The invited industrial partners work in different fields, but share a common methodical foundation, and we hope that this will lead to an open and fruitful discussion of the presented research from both a practical and theoretical perspective.
