The Doctoral Symposium will be held in person on Thursday, September 26 in Valladolid (Spain), within the framework of the XL International Congress of the Spanish Society for Natural Language Processing (SEPLN 2024). The event will take place from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in the Auditorium of the Mergelina / INDUVA Building of the School of Industrial Engineering, where an elevator pitch will be held first, followed by the poster session in the adjoining room.

Briefly, we will tell you about the main phases of the Symposium:

  • The event will begin with a short talk by Francisco Javier Hernando Pericás, Director of the Language and Speech Research Center (TALP) of the UPC and responsible for research in voice technologies at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC).
  • Next, there will be a series of 3-minute elevator pitches by each doctoral student, in which they will briefly explain their research work, without a question session in this initial phase.
  • Afterwards, the poster session will take place, where you will be able to discuss the papers. At this point, mentors and mentees will share feedback, suggestions and any questions you wish to ask them.

Thank you for your interest and participation in the Doctoral Symposium.
