Amazon researchers have more than 50 papers at this year’s International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing (ICASSP). A plurality of them are on automatic speech recognition and related topics, such as keyword spotting and speaker identification. But others range farther afield, to topics such as computer vision and federated learning.
