The project will develop...
This Project Grant award of $448,129 from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.084 - NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships) will support the "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: REDDDOT PHASE 2: INCLUSIVE AMERICAN LANGUAGE TECHNOLOGIES" project. The goal is to create crucial training datasets, primarily optimized for speech recognition (speech-to-text), for three underrepresented American sociolinguistic contexts: a sociolect, a code-switching language context, and an indigenous...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $268,067 to develop advanced speech technologies and create educational resources for language research and learning. The project addresses critical language needs by leveraging automatic speech recognition, text-to-speech, and other speech technologies to bridge the gap between linguistic research and practical application. Key activities include developing...
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...
Northwestern University was awarded a $400,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program to develop new methods for analyzing acoustic variation in speech using unsupervised deep learning techniques. The goal is to discover a representational space for speech that captures subtle but meaningful differences in pronunciation in a holistic manner similar to human speech perception abilities. The university will apply these methods to...
