− | project, we will organize a three-day workshop in Bonn/Germany, 17-19 July 2018
| |
− | (Tuesday-Thursday).
| |
− | | |
− | The workshop intends to bring together experts from academic and industrial
| |
− | research in this fast developing area of speech recognition. The workshop will
| |
− | include regular talks and keynote talks.
| |
− | In total, we expect an audience of about 50 researchers.
| |

− | ==Travel==
| |
− | We encourage the workshop participants to arrive on Monday and to leave after the end of the last session.
| |
− | | |
− | ===By plane===
| |
− | Several airports can be used to travel to Bonn:
| |
− | * '''Cologne/Bonn (Köln/Bonn, CGN)''': 23 km to the venue by car, 25 minutes with bus SB60 from CGN to Bonn main station (4 stops) then 1 km walking or taxi
| |
− | * '''Dusseldorf (Düsseldorf, DUS)''': 83 km by car, about 1h50 with public transport
| |
− | * '''Frankfurt (FRA):''' 154 km by car, about 1h15 - 2h00 with public transport
| |
− | if you need assistance with your travel planning, our secretariat will be happy helping you (+49 241 80-21601, e-mail sek@i6.informatik.rwth-aachen.de).
| |
− | | |
− | Watch out: There are two airports which have names similar to some of the above but lie badly remote in the countryside, notably Frankfurt-Hahn (HHN) and Düsseldorf Weeze (NRN; also Airport Weeze, Verkehrsflughafen Niederrhein). If you end up there, we will have a good laugh at the workshop.
