InterSpeech 2009 Opening Ceremony and Sentiment Classification from Text
07-Sep-2009
The InterSpeech 2009 conference Opening Ceremony has been held today.
Some of the most remarkable scientists that have passed away last year
have been rememebered at the beginning of the event. Among them, Dr. Gunnar Fant,
who devoted his life to the study of the vocal tract and the measurement of
formant values.
Afterwards, Dr. Stephen Hawking has given a recorded speech on the importance of
speech technologies for the wealth of mankind. Thanks to them, he has been
able to communicate his ideas to the world despite of his illness.
The ceremony has concluded with a beautiful "All you need is love" (by The
Beatles) featured by The Paletine String Quartet.
Finally in the afternoon, our work on sentiment classification from text has seen the
light! Now the paper is freely available at the
Publications
section.
