We are pleased to announce the 4^th Virtual Conference on Computational Audiology (VCCA2023), which will take place on June 29-30, 2023. The conference will be hosted online on 29-30 June 2023 by Jessica Monaghan (National Acoustic Laboratories), Karina de Sousa (University of Pretoria), and Fan-Gang Zeng & Kaye Wang (University of California, Irvine). VCCA2023 will provide a platform for presentation and discussion of research in Computational Audiology. The focus lies on the applications of computational approaches (big data, machine learning, AI, signal processing) to audiological interventions and hearing science (hearing loss, hearing devices). Mission (of computational audiology):

• Improve hearing healthcare for hard-of-hearing people (>1500 million people)
• Improve efficacy of hearing devices and audiological interventions
• Reduce the global burden of hearing loss with computational approaches

Topics for VCCA2023

• Big data and (generative) AI in audiology and hearing healthcare
• AI and music perception
• Computational approaches to improving hearing devices and auditory implants
• Data-based and model-based investigations into hearing loss
• Hearing diagnostics and rehabilitation
• Speech recognition for hearing impaired persons
• The Virtual Hearing Clinic: e-Audiology  and e-Research (remote hearing healthcare and virtual audiological care and interventions)
• Sustainable Hearing healthcare and accessibility (Green initiatives)

Timeline

Target audience:

• Hearing, Audiology, AI and Computational researchers all over the world
• Especially young scientists are encouraged to take part
• No participation fee
• Several time zones
