5th International Conference on Nonlinear Speech Processing, NOLISP 2011, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, November 7-9, 2011 Proceedings.
This volume contains the proceedings of NOLISP 2011, an ISCA Tutorial and Workshop on Non-Linear Speech Processing held at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain) during November 7–9, 2011. NOLISP 2011 was preceded by four editions of this biannual event held 2003 in Le Croisic (France), 2005 in Barcelona, 2007 in Paris, and 2009 in Vic (Barcelona). The purpose of the workshop is to present and discuss new ideas, techniques, and results related to alternative approaches in speech processing that may depart from the mainstream. In order to work at the front-end of the subject area, the following domains of interest were defined for NOLISP 2011: non-linear approximation and estimation, non-linear oscillators and predictors, higher-order statistics, independent component analysis, nearest neighbors, neural networks, decision trees, non-parametric models, dynamics of non-linear systems, fractal methods, chaos modeling, non-linear differential equations.Keynote Talks.
