Key project outputs will include grammars, lexicons, and transcribed texts, leveraging...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Social and Economic Sciences award, CFDA 47.075, provides $507,066 to Montclair State University to create a corpus of annotated speech data for African American English, Latinx English, and European American English. The goal is to advance scientific understanding of prosody and develop tools for automatic detection of accent and phrase boundaries across these language varieties. A team of 7 diverse students will receive training through the...
- This Project Grant award of $101,674 from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program aims to build a high-quality speech data set and transcription infrastructure for several low-data languages. The project, conducted by The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY), will create a 60-hour corpus of naturalistic and read speech data recorded in the field. It will leverage unsupervised and weakly supervised machine...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $268,067 to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (RF SUNY) to advance linguistic research through the development of speech technologies. The key products and services delivered under this 2-year award, which runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027, include: Creation of benchmark datasets, comprehensive lexica, and advanced data...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), supports research to develop a computational model that mimics how the human brain detects and repairs speech errors. The $686,537 project, awarded to Trustees of Indiana University, will build the largest publicly available multilingual database of speech errors and repairs across four languages - English,...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $239,580 project grant to Gettysburg College on December 1, 2021 with a completion date of May 31, 2025. The grant supports collaborative research to improve techniques of automatic speech recognition and transfer learning using documentary linguistic corpora under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). This program contributes to scientific strength and welfare through promotion...
- This $116,797 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to document, analyze, and revitalize a contact language that has undergone significant grammatical change. The project will record 40 hours of natural speech through sociolinguistic interviews and linguistic elicitation, transcribe and annotate the data, and develop an open-access digital corpus. Grounded in theories of...
The National Science Foundation awarded $103,992 under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences grant program (CFDA 47.075) to the University of Michigan from June 2023 through May 2026. The award will support the creation of the Individual Differences Corpus, a publicly available database of speech data from hundreds of native English speakers. The corpus will pair audio recordings with detailed cognitive and social profiles of each speaker. It aims to advance understanding of how individual differences impact speech production. Researchers will use the corpus to test hypotheses about how mental skills and personality traits influence pronunciation. The database and accompanying studies have implications for diagnosing speech disorders and improving technologies like speech recognition. The University of Michigan will lead the effort, leveraging its expertise in linguistics and cognitive science research.
