We introduce a notion of training methodology space (TM space) for specifying training methodologies in tile different disciplines and teaching traditions associated with computational linguistics and the human language technologies, and pin our approach to the concept of operational model; we also discuss different general levels of interactivity. A number of operational models are introduced,...

The phonotactics of a language describes the ways in which the sounds of the language combine to form possible morphemes and words. Humans can learn phonotactic patterns at the level of abstract classes, generalizing across sounds (e.g., “words can end in a voiced stop”). Moreover, they rapidly acquire these generalizations, even before they acquire soundspecific patterns. We present a probabil...

This paper presents an unsupervised and incremental model of learning segmentation that combines multiple cues whose use by children and adults were attested by experimental studies. The cues we exploit in this study are predictability statistics , phonotactics , lexical stress and partial lexical information . The performance of the model presented in this paper is competitive with the state-o...

The basic representational hypothesis in phonology is that segments are coded using a universal set of discrete features. We propose a method for quantitatively measuring how well such features align with arbitrary segment representations. We assess articulatory, spectral, and phonotactic representations of English consonants. Our procedure constructs a concrete representation of a feature in t...

This research aims to discover and analyze the problems of speech process between British American phonological system faced by students. It particularly examines impact language phonotactics on errors. Data were collected from random sample sophomores in SMAN 1 Labuhan Deli using descriptive quantitative method. collection techniques started recorded, rated, analyzed. The researchers put data ...

This paper is intended to explore the study of permissible orders Khasibi segments in formatting syllable templates (phonotactics). The treatment phonotactic rules and representations syllables touched on by means two influential factors. One them non-linear perspective that used cover hierarchal mapping syllables. other greater exploitation theory distinctive features elucidate phonetic proper...

This paper argues against a (standard) markedness-based approach to rhyme phonotactics in Taiwanese since analyses in this vein overgenerate by predicting unattested VC gaps. Instead, I explain VC gaps in the following terms. The key point is that the salient places cues of release to a coda stop are absent in Taiwanese (and many other (South) East Asian languages), leaving VC transitions as th...

This article describes an extension of the ComputerAssisted Listening and Speaking Tutor (CALST), an online pronunciation training platform. New exercises help L2-learners of Norwegian to overcome repairs caused by the violation of the phonotactic constraints of their native language. The article presents the contrastive analysis implemented for this purpose and discusses the repair strategies ...
