The 2005 IEEE Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics (WASPAA'05) will be held at the Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz, New York. The workshop is sponsored by the Audio & Electroacoustics committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society. The objective of this workshop is to provide an informal environment for the discussion of problems in audio and acoustics and the signal processing techniques applied to these problems. Technical sessions will be scheduled in the morning and before and after dinner. Afternoons will be left free for informal meetings among workshop participants.

Papers describing original research and new concepts are solicited for technical sessions on, but not limited to, the following topics:

Acoustic Scenes
     - Scene Analysis:
       Source Localization, Source Separation, Room Acoustics
     - Signal Enhancement:
       Echo Cancellation, Dereverberation, Noise Reduction, Restoration
     - Multichannel Signal Processing for Audio Acquisition and Reproduction
     - Virtual Acoustics via Loudspeakers or Headphones
Audio Coding
     - Waveform and Parameter Coding
     - Spatial Audio Coding
     - Internet Audio
     - Musical Signal Analysis:
       Segmentation, Classification, Transcription
     - Digital Rights
     - Mobile Devices
Hearing and Perception
     - Auditory Perception, Spatial Hearing, Quality Assessment
     - Hearing Aids
Music
     - Signal Analysis and Synthesis Tools
     - Creation of Musical Sounds:
