Interspeech is the world’s largest and most comprehensive conference on the science and technology of spoken language processing. Interspeech conferences emphasize interdisciplinary approaches addressing all aspects of speech science and technology, ranging from psycholinguistic theories of human speech processing to advanced applications of speech technology. The theme of Interspeech 2025 is “Fair and Inclusive Speech Science and Technology” and aims to celebrate and incorporate the vast speech diversity both within and between individuals, as well as within and between languages. This theme emphasizes diversity as a source of richness and information, contributing to the development of fairer, more robust, and personalized speech technology applications and more accurate theories of human speech processing. By embracing this diversity, we can create theories and technologies that are inclusive of everyone, ensuring that speech science and technology benefit all individuals and communities. Interspeech 2025 will feature the usual oral and poster sessions, plenary talks by internationally renowned experts, tutorials, special sessions and challenges, show & tell, exhibits, and satellite events. Following Interspeech 2024 we will feature a Blue Sky track. New this year is a Speech Science Festival for the general public on the Sunday prior to Interspeech. Watch our website for more information in the coming months on how you can participate!

Paper Submission

Please note that the paper submission deadline is earlier than previous years because the conference is held in August. The paper submission deadline is February 12 2025.

Interspeech 2025 seeks original and innovative papers covering all aspects of human and machine speech science and technology. The language of the conference is English, so papers must be written in English. The paper length is up to four pages in two columns with an additional page for references and acknowledgments only. Submitted papers must conform to the format defined in the paper kit provided on the conference website (and as an overleaf template) and may optionally be accompanied by multimedia files. Interspeech 2025 will follow a double-blind review process so papers submitted for review should not reveal the identity or affiliation of the authors. Authors must declare that their contributions are original and that they have not submitted their papers elsewhere for publication. Papers must be submitted electronically and will be evaluated through rigorous peer review on the basis of novelty and originality, technical correctness, clarity of presentation, key strengths, and quality of references. The Technical Programme Committee will decide which papers to include in the conference programme using peer review as the primary criterion, with secondary criteria of addressing the conference theme, and diversity across the programme as a whole. If accepted, each paper needs to be presented by one of the authors during the in-person conference.

Blue Sky Track

Interspeech 2024 introduced the new BLUE SKY track of highly innovative papers in fields or directions that have not yet been explored. Large-scale experimental evaluation will not be required for papers in this track. If you think your work satisfies these requirements, please consider submitting a paper to this challenging and competitive track. Please note that to achieve the objectives of this BLUE SKY track, we will ask the most experienced reviewers to assess the proposals.

Venue

Interspeech 2025 will take place at Rotterdam Ahoy Convention Center in the Netherlands.
