• measurement devices (signal and image);
• robust techniques for voice and glottal analysis in time, frequency, cepstral, wavelet domain;
• Analysis in time, frequency, cepstral, wavelet domain;
• linguistic and clinical phonetics;
• neurological dysfunction;
• imaging techniques (laryngography, videokymography, fMRI);
• videokymography, fMRI;
• voice enhancement;
• protocols and database design;
• physical and mechanical models;
• prostheses;
• neural networks, artificial intelligence and other advanced methods for pathologt classification;
• new-born infant cry analysis;
• multiparametric/multimodal analysis;
• industrial applications in the biomedical field
• non-linear analysis (fractal geometry, chaos);
• pathology classification;
• singing voice;
• speech/hearing interactions.
• aids for disabled;

Any industrial application in the biomedical field concerning voice analysis is welcome. Companies interested in participating in the Workshop are asked to contact the local organisers.
