ASRU 2025 invites submissions to a dedicated track for demonstration, system, and data description papers.

In previous ASRU workshops, the demo track was held as a separate session without inclusion in the official workshop proceedings or IEEE Xplore. However, with the growing impact of automatic speech recognition and understanding systems in real-world application —and the emergence of large language models—this category of work has become increasingly important to our community. This is especially true for researchers in industry, and the redesigned demo track aims to encourage their participation by providing a platform to share valuable research and development outcomes with the broader ASRU community.

In recognition of this trend, ASRU 2025 is elevating the demo track to an official, peer-reviewed track. Accepted papers will be included in the workshop proceedings and published in IEEE Xplore®, alongside regular papers.

We welcome submissions in the following categories:

  • Descriptions of speech and language processing systems and
    demonstrations
  • Applications of speech and language technologies
  • Development of spoken and multimodal language models
  • Software or toolkits for speech and language processing
  • Optimization techniques for large-scale training and complex system
    development
  • Methods for efficient inference and deployment
  • Collection, description, and curation of datasets for speech, language,
    and multimodal data
  • Tools for system visualization and evaluation
  • Benchmark creation, description, and evaluation

We look forward to your contributions to this exciting and evolving area of research.
