As the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program aims to support basic research that contributes to...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $268,067 to support a project titled "Advancing Linguistic Research Through Speech Technologies." The project aims to develop tools and resources, including automatic speech recognition, text-to-speech systems, and educational materials, to bridge the gap between linguistic research and practical language applications. Key activities include...
- 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...
- 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 $14,970 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports the creation of very large collections (hundreds of millions of words spanning several centuries) of grammatically-analyzed text for two languages with rich written traditions. The project aims to build on recent advances in natural language processing and artificial intelligence to efficiently scale up the production of annotated corpora, which...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports the documentation, analysis, and revitalization of a language that has undergone significant grammatical change due to language contact and generational shifts. Grounded in theories of language contact, creole formation, and second language acquisition, the project aims to contribute to the understanding of how languages evolve over time. The...
- This $300,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) will fund the development of a new software visualization application and toolkit for teaching and research in speech communication. The primary aims are to: (1) write and test software for speech analysis, and (2) engage with academic and industry leaders to guide the software's development and ensure wide utility and adoption. This effort will build upon an...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $265,830 project grant to Michigan State University on August 1, 2021 with a completion date of January 31, 2025. The grant falls under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research and education in these fields as well as monitoring science resources. Under this award, Michigan State University will build infrastructure for collecting longitudinal speech...
New York University received a $131,180 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The award will fund the development of the Individual Differences Corpus, a publicly available speech dataset and associated research studies exploring sources of variation in speech production. From June 2023 through May 2026, NYU will create a corpus pairing thousands of words of connected speech from hundreds of native English speakers with comprehensive cognitive and social profiles measured through validated psychometric tools. Initial corpus research will investigate the influence of mental skills and personality traits on prosodic and segmental aspects of speech. The corpus and supported research aim to advance scientific understanding of individual differences in speech and their implications across social, technological, clinical and educational applications.
