The Development of Indo‐Iranian Voiced Fricatives
Transactions of the Philological Society, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 97-115, March 2025.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.

Formant frequency estimations of whispered speech in Chinese
Archives of Acoustics, 2009 Formant frequencies are important cues for characterizing whispered speech. However, it is difficult to exactly estimate its formant by the conventional linear prediction coding algorithm.

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Bioacoustic research, vital for promoting conservation and understanding animal behaviour and ecology, faces a monumental challenge: analysing vast datasets where animal vocalizations are rare. While deep learning techniques are becoming standard, adapting them to bioacoustics remains difficult.

Hybrid Autoregressive Resonance Estimation and Density Mixture Formant Tracking Model
IEEE Access, 2018 A novel formant tracker is proposed using the mixture models oft densities (tMMs) for vocal tract resonance frequencies estimated with a hybrid linear prediction (HLP) method.

Exploring Acoustic Overlap in Second Language Vowel Productions
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the alignment of vowel categories between second language (L2) learners and first language (L1) speakers of the target language, as well as potential overlaps between adjacent vowels in terms of formant frequencies and duration.

Speech vocoding for laboratory phonology [PDF]
, 2015 Using phonological speech vocoding, we propose a platform for exploring relations between phonology and speech processing, and in broader terms, for exploring relations between the abstract and physical structures of a speech signal.

Journal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article applies a social model of historical dialect evolution in 19th‐century Britain to the analysis of sociophonetic data. Our aim is to assess where new dialect formation is likely to occur, and where it is not. Using recordings from 27 speakers, we first analyse coda rhoticity in north Lancashire, UK. The speakers were born 1890–1917

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract Research shows that children use head gestures to mark discourse focus before developing the required prosodic cues in their first language (L1), and their gestures affect the prosodic parameters of their speech. We investigated whether head gestures also act as precursors and bootstrappers of prosodic focus marking in second language (L2 ...

Long‐term stability of sinus complication management
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Maxillary sinus augmentation shows a low incidence of complications and high clinical success due to favorable biological conditions and typically transient issues. Most complications are intraoperative, such as Schneiderian membrane perforation or hemorrhage, and are often resolved immediately.

Changes in the McGurk Effect Across Phonetic Contexts [PDF]
, 2002 To investigate the process underlying audiovisual speech perception, the McGurk illusion was examined across a range of phonetic contexts. Two major changes were found.
