This $300,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) supports research to develop brain-machine interfaces for speech decoding. The project aims to restore the ability to communicate through speech for individuals who have lost it due to conditions like ALS, stroke, or traumatic brain injury. The key objectives are to collect large amounts of intracranial electroencephalography...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences supports research at the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying speech production. The project aims to generate a functional map of the brain systems that enable fluent speech, with the goal of improving diagnosis and treatment of speech production deficits. The $965,471 award, effective August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2026,...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) provides $160,000 in funding to support an early career scientist developing a framework for process-level models of human language comprehension. The goal is to bridge the gap between human language behavior and computational models by analyzing incremental language processing behavior, particularly in response to imperfect input, and implementing models to...
This $449,275 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to advance the scientific understanding of human language processing and change. The project, led by the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), combines expertise from linguistics, psychology, and computational approaches to investigate how language users integrate general language constraints and verb-specific preferences...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $250,000 to New York University (NYU) to study the neurobiology of bilingual language production. The project aims to measure brain responses in bilingual individuals as they produce words with different grammatical rules across their multiple languages. This will provide insights into how the brain processes and learns multiple languages effectively....
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Information and Intelligent Systems (CFDA 47.070 - Computer and Information Science and Engineering) supports research into probing the inner workings of artificial intelligence (AI) systems and comparing them to human cognition during speech recognition. The $50,000 award to the University of Southern California (USC) will fund the development of novel mathematical models and experimental methods to examine how AI...
This $300,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will support research at the University of Pittsburgh to develop new analytical tools and computational models to understand how the brain selectively processes relevant information and coordinates information flow across brain regions. The project aims to integrate existing datasets on large-scale neural activity and anatomical connectivity...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), will fund research to better understand the differences between how humans and AI language models process and interpret language. The $432,656 award to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) will explore techniques to align AI models more closely with human language comprehension, including investigating the relationship between model...
This $763,741 project grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program aims to better align how human and artificial intelligence (AI) models process language. The researchers at New York University will explore techniques to modify AI architectures, such as adopting semantic training objectives and leveraging causal intervention methods, to bring them more in line with how humans derive meaning from sentences and handle...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports the documentation and interdisciplinary study of three languages with unusual grammatical structures. The $244,516 award, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2028, will result in the development of grammars, lexicons, and transcribed texts for these languages. The project leverages automatic speech recognition technologies and...
