of achieving robustness in conversational interaction.
The workshop is aimed at
robustness against all effects, which are known to degrade
the performance of each individual component of a conversational
interaction system .

on topics of related general interest. The workshop will
be divided into four sessions during the two days and
will conclude with a panel discussion.
