A New Approach to the Formant Measuring Problem
Formants are characteristic frequency components in human speech that are caused by resonances in the vocal tract during speech production. They are of primary concern in acoustic phonetics and speech recognition.

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.

Kinematic formant-to-area mapping
This article presents a method of formant-to-area mapping consisting of the direct calculation of the time derivatives of the cross-sections and length of a vocal tract model so that the time derivatives of the observed formant frequencies and the model ...

The Development of Indo‐Iranian Voiced Fricatives
Abstract The development of voiced sibilants is a long‐standing puzzle in Indo‐Iranian historical phonology. In Vedic, all voiced sibilants are lost from the system, but the details of this loss are complex and subject to debate. The most intriguing development concerns the word‐final ‐aḥ to ‐o in sandhi.

The Role of A Surgeon in Restoring the Senses & in Biomedical Engineering
ABSTRACT This review is based on my 2025 Jepson Lecture and outlines my personal journey to restore hearing in people with a severe sensorineural hearing loss. My dream started as a 5‐year‐old as I told my kindergarten teacher when I grow up ‘I want to fix ears’ because my father is deaf. The journey resulted in a career in surgery followed by auditory

Social voice judgement is dyadic: Acoustic typicality and interpersonal similarity interact
Abstract The formation of social first impressions from voices is a central component of everyday social interactions. While past research has primarily investigated the effect of bottom‐up voice acoustic on social voice judgements, here we widen the perspective and investigate how bottom‐up acoustic and top‐down interpersonal similarity interactively ...
