Jean-Luc Gauvain is a senior scientist at the CNRS and head of the Spoken Language Processing Group at LIMSI-CNRS. He received a doctorate in Electronics from the University of Paris XI in 1982, and has been a permanent CNRS researcher at LIMSI since 1983. His primary research centers on large vocabulary continuous speech recognition and audio indexing. His research interests also include conversational interfaces, speaker recognition, language identification, and speech translation. He was a visiting researcher at AT&T Bell Laboratories from June 1990 to November 1991. He has participated in many speech related projects both at the French National and European levels and has led the LIMSI participation in the DARPA/NIST organized evaluations since 1992: Resource Management task (92), Wall Street Journal task (92-95), and evaluations on the transcription of Broadcast News data (96-99, 02-04) and conversational speech (03-04). He has over 240 publications, received the 1996 IEEE SPS Best Paper Award in Speech Processing for the paper "Maximum a Posteriori Estimation for Multivariate Gaussian Mixture Observations of Markov Chains," by J.L. Gauvain and C.H. Lee, and received in 2004 the ``ISCA Best Paper Award for a paper in the Speech Communication Journal'' for the paper "The LIMSI Broadcast News Transcription System" by J.L. Gauvain, L. Lamel and G. Adda. He was a member of the IEEE Signal Processing Society's Speech Technical Committee from 1998 to 2001 and co editor-in-chief of the Speech Communication journal for a 3-year mandate (2006-2008) and is now a member of the Editorial Board.
