Approaching the historical phonology of three highly eroded Sino-Tibetan languages: Naxi, Na and Laze

open access: yes, 2011
Naxi, Na and Laze are three languages whose position within Sino-Tibetan is controversial. We propose that they are descended from a common ancestor (‘Proto-Naish’).

Learning the Ordering of Coordinate Compounds and Elaborate Expressions in Hmong, Lahu, and Chinese [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Coordinate compounds (CCs) and elaborate expressions (EEs) are coordinate constructions common in languages of East and Southeast Asia. Mortensen (2006) claims that (1) the linear ordering of EEs and CCs in Hmong, Lahu, and Chinese can be predicted via phonological hierarchies and (2) these phonological hierarchies lack a clear phonetic rationale ...

More evidence for a continuum between phonological and deep dyslexia: Novel data from three measures of direct orthography-to-phonology translation

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Over recent years a number of studies have suggested that phonological and deep dyslexia are not separate acquired dyslexias but actually reflect different points along a single continuum.

Phonology [PDF]

open access: yesIn Ruslan Mitkov (ed) (2002). Oxford Handbook of Computational Linguistics, 2002
Phonology is the systematic study of the sounds used in language, their internal structure, and their composition into syllables, words and phrases. Computational phonology is the application of formal and computational techniques to the representation and processing of phonological information. This chapter will present the fundamentals of descriptive

Computational Phonology [PDF]

open access: yesOxford International Encyclopedia of Linguistics, 2nd Edition, 2002, 2002
Phonology, as it is practiced, is deeply computational. Phonological analysis is data-intensive and the resulting models are nothing other than specialized data structures and algorithms. In the past, phonological computation - managing data and developing analyses - was done manually with pencil and paper.

Phonological modeling for continuous speech recognition in Korean [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1996
A new scheme to represent phonological changes during continuous speech recognition is suggested. A phonological tag coupled with its morphological tag is designed to represent the conditions of Korean phonological changes. A pairwise language model of these morphological and phonological tags is implemented in Korean speech recognition system ...

Do Acoustic Word Embeddings Capture Phonological Similarity? An Empirical Study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Several variants of deep neural networks have been successfully employed for building parametric models that project variable-duration spoken word segments onto fixed-size vector representations, or acoustic word embeddings (AWEs). However, it remains unclear to what degree we can rely on the distance in the emerging AWE space as an estimate of word ...

A Neural Network Model of Lexical Competition during Infant Spoken Word Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Visual world studies show that upon hearing a word in a target-absent visual context containing related and unrelated items, toddlers and adults briefly direct their gaze towards phonologically related items, before shifting towards semantically and visually related ones.

A Czech Morphological Lexicon [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Third Meeting of the ACL Special Interest Group in Computational Phonology, pp. 41-47, Madrid, July 1997. ACL, 1997
In this paper, a treatment of Czech phonological rules in two-level morphology approach is described. First the possible phonological alternations in Czech are listed and then their treatment in a practical application of a Czech morphological lexicon.

Phasal Syntax = Cyclic Phonology?

open access: yes, 2016
This paper addresses three central questions in the phonology–syntax interface: What does phonology know about syntax? Does phrasal phonology “know” about syntax directly or indirectly (i.e., mediated by prosodic constituents such as Intonation Phrase ...
