- 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...
- This Project Grant award of $249,993 from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports a research project at Georgetown University to examine language data and advance language infrastructure, knowledge, and theory. The project provides empirical data for developing and testing theories of language, which are important for understanding human cognition, and trains students in these methods. The research focuses on documenting and...
- This $244,516 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports a research project to document and analyze three languages with unusual grammatical structures. The goal is to expand existing language databases and advance the understanding of language evolution, structure, and function through comparative analyses. Key project outputs will include grammars, lexicons, and transcribed texts, leveraging...
- 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 $285,326 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program funds a 3-year community-driven documentation project focused on critically endangered, rarely studied, and infrequently documented languages. The project aims to produce transcribed and translated narratives in an open-access, permanently archived collection, develop a research-enriched, community-based interactive multimedia learning site, and conduct...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award provides $160,000 in funding from September 2024 to August 2026 to an early career researcher. The grant supports an investigation into the role of non-systematic structures in natural language, with the goal of better understanding language learning and use. Specifically, the research will develop a novel measure of systematicity in language using information theory tools, and then...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $174,967 EAGER (Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research) Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) to the Trustees of Indiana University. This 2-year project, running from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026, aims to study how well machine language tools can grasp cultural nuances to enhance cross-cultural communication. The project will focus on developing a new knowledge base...
- This $875,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). The project aims to develop new techniques for aligning large language models (LLMs) with formal specifications in order to generate high-quality computer code that provably matches user intent. Specifically, the project will: (1) develop grammar-aligned decoding...
- This $240,470 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) aims to investigate evidential markers - the grammatical coding of information source and speaker's perspectives - across different languages. The project's goal is to create treebanks/universal dependencies corpora to develop an automated deep-learning natural language processing (NLP) model that can extract information from texts...
- This $261,181 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) will support a multi-year study by the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) analyzing the determinants that shape language restoration and development within communities. The project will utilize linguistic analysis, observation, interviews, participatory methods, and digital network analysis to track how language is introduced and emerges as a mode of communication. The findings...
