If you're submitting to #ICASSP2025 and are wondering why your tables at the top of a column are too low, it's because the template adds a \vskip above the caption. Easiest fix is to add \vspace{-6pt} just before the \caption to make it flush with the text. You're welcome🤗
Two bucket list items this weekend: @supergrasshq.bsky.social yesterday at Citizens House of Blues, and Pulp tonight at Suffolk Downs. Both as fresh as ever and amazingly good 🫶

#ICASSP2025 was pretty fun! Lots of good conversations and connections. Jet lag totally killed my sleep for the whole week, but now I know you can survive on 15 hours of sleep over 5 days, and at least I'm still almost on Boston time🤗
On my way to Hyderabad and #ICASSP2025. Looking forward to catching up with many friends! Sadly not as many as usual given that <50% of participants could get a visa 😅 I'm chairing 3 sessions (SLP-P3, AASP-P8, AASP-L6) and presenting 1 paper (in AASP-L3), good places to find me if you want to chat🤗

Dear @interspeech.bsky.social, is it true that the author rebuttal period was moved forward to April 4-11? This is #ICASSP2025 week, please reconsider 🥺
