Summary
Several languages originated in theR Iberian peninsula and are known as Iberian Languages. As other ISCA special interest groups on specific languages (e.g., Chinese, Russian, Italian, French), SIG-IL organizes an international conference, the IberSPEECH that aims to promote the presentation of recent advances in the field and increase interaction and discussion among the members of this research community. The main goal of this Special Issue is to present the latest advances in research and novel applications of speech and language processing, paying special attention to those focused on Iberian languages, based in research presented at IberSPEECH2018, edition held in Barcelona, Spain. For this first ever Special Issue resulting from an IberSPEECH conference, a very rich and diverse set of high-quality papers were selected. They are briefly presented organized by research topics
