Dear SANE registrants,

Thank you all for registering to SANE 2015!
We have reached capacity (110!) and started taking registrations on the waiting list,
so if you find that you are not able to attend the workshop anymore, please do let us know
in advance so that we can give your slot to someone else.

We would like to use this occasion to encourage you to submit poster abstracts.
The deadline for poster submission has been extended to October 10. We have 13 slots left.
As SANE participants will be a mix of audio signal processing, speech, and machine learning
researchers, the poster session will be a great opportunity to foster discussion as well as
get feedback and comments from various perspectives on your work.
For poster submission, please send an email to pos...@saneworkshop.org
with a title, a list of authors and a brief abstract describing what you plan to present.

The tentative schedule for the day (reproduced below) together with abstracts and bios
for all talks are now available on the website: http://www.saneworkshop.org/

We look forward to seeing you there!

The organizers,
    Jonathan Le Roux (MERL)
    Hank Liao (Google)
    Andrew Senior (Google)
    John R. Hershey (MERL)
