Evaluating phonological status : significance of paradigm uniformity vs. prosodic group effects

open access: yes, 2009
A central concern of linguistic phonetics is to define criteria for determining the phonological status of sounds or sound properties observed in phonetic surface form.

An Acoustic Study on English Vowels Produced by Indonesian Speakers: Exploring Determining Factors and Contact Situations

open access: yesK@ta: A Biannual Publication on the Study of Language and Literature
Compared to English varieties spoken in the inner circle (e.g., Australian English and New Zealand English), the English variety spoken in Indonesia, especially in acoustic phonetics, is still understudied. Using the Praat computer program, this acoustic

Newborns' Language Discrimination May Not Reflect Sensitivity to Speech Rhythm: Evidence From Computational Modeling

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Human newborns are able to discriminate between certain languages but not others. This ability has long been attributed to sensitivity to rhythm—the temporal regularities in speech of different languages. Here, we demonstrate through a series of computational simulations that this discrimination behavior can be achieved using no temporal ...

Speech rhythm: the language-specific integration of pitch and duration

open access: yes, 2010
Experimental phonetic research on speech rhythm seems to have reached an impasse. Recently, this research field has tended to investigate produced (rather than perceived) rhythm, focussing on timing, i.e.

Inter‐Model Feature Fusion for Robust Low‐Resource Speech Recognition

open access: yesApplied AI Letters, Volume 7, Issue 2, June 2026.
Our Self‐Supervised Feature Fusion (SSF‐FT) method enhances low‐resource speech recognition by adaptively combining features from self‐supervised models trained with Contrastive, Predictive, and Reconstruction objectives. This attention‐weighted ensemble delivers robust performance, particularly in acoustically challenging conditions, extending current

Iniciación a la fonética acústica

open access: yesAnuario del Seminario de Filología Vasca "Julio de Urquijo", 1987
The goal of this paper is to show the present growing and flourishing of Acoustic Phonetics thanks to the perfectioning of electroacoustics and its tools (Sonograph,Synthetizer, etc.). It starts with some general observations about communication, the car

The include network: Advancing cross‐linguistic equity in brain health research

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Speech and language measures are increasingly recognized as sensitive, scalable, non‐invasive markers of diverse brain disorders. Yet, current research is overwhelmingly English‐centric, neglecting the world's vast linguistic diversity and undermining these markers’ global applicability.
