MIT Speech Recognition Classes on the web

M.I.T.'s Open Courseware initiative puts most of their class lectures out on the Internet for all to see.  One that's definitely worth checking out sometime is their course # 6.345 "Automatic Speech Recognition".  The class is co-taught by Victor Zue, who is a long-time friend of many of the top scientists here at Microsoft's Speech Division.

I had the opportunity to take a class from Victor Zue when I was an undergraduate.

One day, while Victor Zue was writing at the board, someone snuck into the room midway through class. Victor heard the the door click shut, turned around, and without pausing for even one second said "Ah, Mr. (insert name here), you haven't been to class since the second week of the semester. Here are your problem sets."

He then pointed to a stack of papers on his desk and went back to writing at the board.

I was just a witness to that scene, but I can assure you, I NEVER skipped his class after that.
