Soft Active Electromyography Interface for Machine Learning‐Enabled Silent Speech Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A soft, hand‐worn electromyography interface enables intent‐driven silent speech recognition without continuous facial attachment. The device integrates liquid‐metal interconnects, a transparent flexible circuit, and elastomer encapsulation with a fingertip electrode that contacts perioral muscles only on demand.

Associating the origin and spread of sound change using agent-based modelling applied to /s/-retraction in English

open access: yesGlossa, 2019
The study explored whether an asymmetric phonetic overlap between speech sounds could be turned into sound change through propagation around a community of speakers. The focus was on the change of /s/ to /ʃ/ which is known to be more likely than a change
