Bilinguals’ advantages in executive function: Learning phonotactics and alternation
Second Language ResearchThis study investigates the relationship between phonotactics and alternation in phonological acquisition and whether bilingual speakers have an advantage in learning alternation patterns not fully supported by phonotactics.

AbstractThe phonologies of Australia can now be investigated with new tools for large-scale phonological typology. Here we draw on an empirical dataset covering three hundred thousand lexical entries from over two hundred and fifty language varieties, which enables us to understand continent-level phonological variation in significantly more detail ...

Words derive their structure not only from the sounds they include but also from the organization of those sounds within the word. This organization is the phonotactic level of the word: roughly, its shape including the sequence of its elements.

Rethinking Phonotactic Complexity
2019In this work, we propose the use of phone-level language models to estimate phonotactic complexity—measured in bits per phoneme—which makes cross-linguistic comparison straightforward. We compare the entropy across languages using this simple measure, gaining insight on how complex different language’s phonotactics are.

Learning nonlocal phonotactics in Strictly Piecewise phonotactic model
2021Phonotactic learning is a crucial aspect of phonological acquisition and has figured significantly in computational research in phonology (Prince & Tesar 2004). However, one persistent challenge for this line of research is inducing non-local co-occurrence patterns (Hayes & Wilson 2008).

Phonotactics in Inductive Logic Programming
2004We examine the results of applying inductive logic programming (ILP) to a relatively simple linguistic task, that of recognizing monosyllables in one language. ILP is suited to linguistic problems given linguists' preference for formulating their theories in discrete rules, and because of ILP's ability to incorporate various background theories. But it

Learning the Logic of Simple Phonotactics
2000We report on experiments which demonstrate that by abductive inference it is possible to learn enough simple phonotactics to distinguish words from non-words for a simplified set of Dutch, the monosyllables. The monosyllables are distinguished in input so that segmentation is not problematic. Frequency information is withheld as is negative data.

The first chapter summarizes the goals of the dissertation and introduces most of the constraints used later in the work. The main goal of this work is to characterize sequences of consonants by characterizing codas in the most general way possible.

English Language and Linguistics, 2015
This article presents an analysis of the phonotactic structures of English presented inThe Cambridge English Pronouncing Dictionary, paying attention to morphological boundaries, the difference between stressed and unstressed syllables, the difference between native and non-native, and considering the distribution of vowels as well as consonants.

Losing Phonotactic Distinctions in Context
Cognitive ScienceAbstractPrevious psycholinguistic research has demonstrated that sentence processing varies according to both syntactic and discourse context. However, a systematic investigation of how such contexts influence how the processor manages low‐level representations of linguistic structure has yet to be carried out.
