Submission of full papers NO CHANGES IN SUBMISSION DUE TO COVID-19 CONFERENCE WILL BE ORGANIZED WITH REMOTE PARTICIPATION Even though the COVID-19 spread is kept in limits in the Czech Republic, government regulations influence travelling possibilities. As the situation in September cannot be easily predicted, the TSD 2020 PC members have decided to choose the virtual TSD 2020 conference (with substantially reduced fees) as the default option. The actual organization of the TSD 2020 conference in September is thus not at risk and the preparation process continues without changes regarding the publication and submissions - Springer publication is already approved. KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Paolo Rosso, Universitat Politecnica de Valencia, Spain Diana Maynard, University of Sheffield, UK Joakim Nivre, Uppsala University, Sweden The conference is organized by the Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University, Brno, and the Faculty of Applied Sciences, University of West Bohemia, Pilsen. The conference is supported by International Speech Communication Association. Venue: virtual conference running from Brno, Czech Republic FORMAT OF THE CONFERENCE The conference will be organized with remote participation using video conference tools. The conference program will include presentation of invited papers, oral presentations, and poster/demonstration sessions. Papers will be presented in plenary or topic oriented sessions. The registration fee has been substantially reduced: Student: Remote participation, early discount -- CZK 3000 (approx. EUR 115) Full participant: Remote participation, early discount -- CZK 5000 (approx. EUR 190) SUBMISSION OF PAPERS Authors are invited to submit a full paper not exceeding 8 pages formatted in the LNCS style (including references). Those accepted will be presented either orally or as posters. The decision about the presentation format will be based on the recommendation of the reviewers. The authors are asked to submit their papers using the on-line form accessible from the conference website. Papers submitted to TSD 2020 must not be under review by any other conference or publication during the TSD review cycle, and must not be previously published or accepted for publication elsewhere. As reviewing will be blind, the paper should not include the authors' names and affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author's identity, e.g., "We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...", should be avoided. Instead, use citations such as "Smith previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...". Papers that do not conform to the requirements above are subject to be rejected without review. The authors are strongly encouraged to write their papers in TeX or LaTeX formats. These formats are necessary for the final versions of the papers that will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes. Authors using a WORD compatible software for the final version must use the LNCS template for WORD and within the submit process ask the Proceedings Editors to convert the paper to LaTeX format. For this service a service-and-license fee of CZK 2000 will be levied automatically. The paper format for review has to be in the PDF format with all required fonts included. Upon notification of acceptance, presenters will receive further information on submitting their camera-ready and electronic sources (for detailed instructions on the final paper format see https://www.tsdconference.org/tsd2020/paper_instr.html). Authors are also invited to present actual projects, developed software or interesting material relevant to the topics of the conference. The presenters of demonstrations should provide an abstract not exceeding one page. The demonstration abstracts will not appear in the conference proceedings.
