IEEE WCCI: Special Session on Computational Audio Intelligence

[Konstantinos Drossos]

Dear colleagues,

==== Apologies for cross-posting ====

We are pleased to invite you at the

"Special Session on Computational Audio Intelligence for Perception & Representation (CAIPeRe)"

organized at the IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI, webpage here), 2026

Given the prevalence of computational audio intelligence in seemingly most (if not all) audio processing-related tasks, our special session aims to provide a concise and concentrated platform for presenting and discussing novel research results, on the combination of computational intelligence and audio processing.

We welcome high-quality original contributions on topics, from both academia and industry, including, but not limited to:

• Self-Supervised Learning For Audio Representation
  
• Intelligent Denoising, Dereverberation, And Source Separation
  
• Spatial Audio Understanding And Neural Rendering
  
• Cross-Modal And Multi-Sensor Fusion For Sound Perception
  
• Generative And Diffusion-Based Models For Audio Transformation
  
• Adaptive, Bio-Inspired, And Neuro-Computational Models Of Hearing
  
• Applications In Machine Hearing, Ar/Vr Audio, And Auditory Scene Analysis
  
• Context-Aware Immersive Speech Processing And Applications
  
• Audio Augmented And Mixed Reality
  
• Machine Hearing For 3D Audio Scene Reconstruction
  
• Computational Hearing Aids And Assistive Listening Technologies
  
• Audio-Based Environmental Monitoring And Smart Cities
  
• Audio Intelligence For Autonomous Systems And Robotics
  
• Ethical And Social Implications Of Synthetic Audio And Deepfake
  
• Audio-Based Localization
  
• Multimodal Audio-Visual Embeddings For Cross-Domain Perception
  

Important Dates

• Paper Submission Deadline: January 31st, 2026
  
• Notification of Acceptance: March 15th, 2026
  
• Camera-Ready Paper Due: April 15th, 2026
  
• Conference Dates: June 22nd-26th, 2026 
  

Further information

• You can keep track with CAIPeRe and get more info from its webpage (here).
  
• All accepted submissions will be part of the main conference and its proceedings

We look forward to your contributions and to creating a vibrant and inspiring scientific forum that advances the frontier of audio intelligence.

Sincerely,

CAIPeRe Special Session Organizers
    Emmanouil Benetos, Queen Mary University of London, U.K.
    Konstantinos Drossos, Nokia Technologies, Finland
    Michele Scarpiniti, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy

Thanks for this. We are also hosting a session on Neural Networks for Biodiversity at WCCI, which of course includes bioacoustics. See you (all) in Maastricht at WCCI!

Best wishes

Dan Stowell
