Ahead of ISSP, I wrote a proper exhaustive manual for praatpicture. It's never been easier to do your acoustics plotting in R! Come over to my poster and talk about if you're going to Autrans!

Orcas imitating human speech

How origami is used in aerospace engineering

Lovely to wake up to see the joint effort of Eleanor Chodroff Morgan Sonderegger and colleagues to write what needed to be written for all of #phonetics and that too in one place. Thank you for writing #Statistics in #Phonetics arxiv.org/pdf/2404.07567…

This is the first paper that trained the fiwGAN model on a non-European language.

Super excited! 🥳

For those who check model assumptions (you ALL should), the {easystats} package makes it very easy to do this with various models but particularly regression models

Bro please come to the conference. Registration fee $1000 ($950 early bird), flights & accommodation $3000. You'll present for 6 minutes and get roasted. You can't present virtually because...look you just can't ok. There's a yoga session. You'll get a point on your CV bro please

The response came in. Looks like we got in. The only problem now is I wish I had enough funding to travel around the globe and attend both conferences with equal excitement. Super stoked, otherwise! 😁

What is Speech Prosody 2024 doing, not informing all the submitting authors about the decision? Am I the only one who did not get an on-time response on the decision? I will understand if the paper gets rejected but what about the reviews??

- I'm a linguist.
+ oh do you know about the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis?
- mmm .... never heard of it ... I can tell you how many languages I speak tho

Academia be like

Making the leap day count. Our abstract on 'Modeling regressive vowel harmony with GAN' got accepted for poster presentation at #LabPhon19 . Starting the year on a #Seoul -ful note!

Nobody really asked for it but the MITRA model can translate classical Sanskrit poetry into Classical Chinese fluently! Below a rendering of the first verse of Kalidasa’s Kumarasambhava! This is great fun to play around with.

If this is a reference you get, congrats you've been exposed to too much linguistics. Please step outside and get some air

Sure scientists spend decades using AI to publish nonsense statistical results but publish one giant AI rat testicle and suddenly it's a crisis
