ASRU 2025 (December 6-10, 2025) 🌺
11 Dec 2025Under the motto Towards the New Era of Speech Understanding, this year’s IEEE Automatic Speech Recognition and Understanding (ASRU) Workshop brought researchers together in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. 🏝️
Together with Suyoun Kim (Amazon, USA), we had the exciting role of Student and Volunteer Chairs for the workshop. We had the pleasure of working with a group of highly motivated students from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, who helped us make sure the workshop ran seamlessly. On top of that, we organized a mentoring program, bringing together early-career researchers and experienced mentors. Mentees shared that the meet-ups gave them valuable clarity on research directions and career paths, while mentors enjoyed fresh perspectives from the next generation of researchers. Some impressions from these meet-ups are shared below.
It was fantastic working alongside the tireless General Chairs, Bowon Lee (Inha University, Korea), Kyu Han (Oracle, USA), and Chanwoo Kim (Korea University), whose dedication made the conference a success! Mahalo! 💛 💛 💛
