I can confirm, it's the best workshop out there!

This is your chance to organise the next DCASE Workshop.
Ask anyone who ever attended it, it's the best workshop out there!

If you ever considered you would like to organise it but don't know how to start or plan the proposal, feel free to contact me or @rserizel.bsky.social for advice.
We are looking for organizers for DCASE 2026 workshop. If you're working on DCASE related topics organizing the workshop is a great opportunity to get more involved in the community!

Anyone who thinks you can be on X in a way that doesn't enable and support fascism is fooling themselves
The radicalised owner of X Elon Musk calls the Farage plan "weak sauce" as he promotes the racist convict Tommy Robinson's call for Rupert Lowe to join forces with Ben Habib's Advance UK. Lowe says a "proper" remigration and mass deportation policy must remove "millions" of legal migrants too

I'm very proud of Ines Nolasco - she passed her PhD defence with flying colours! (aka "minor corrections")

It's been great working with her on animal sounds, individuality, and machine learning. ......... She's now available for postdoc jobs etc. Highly recommended! #bioacoustics

The biggest lesson from ecology: rapid changes can wreak havoc. Ecosystems' components evolved to a certain "assumption" of the timescales of change, and can handle those. Invasive species & human disturbance often have much faster timescales. Thus: don't throw free ChatGPT at an unprepared society!
