This work examines the relation between phrasal structure and the control and coordination
of articulation within a dynamical systems model of speech production. In this context, we …

We tested the effect of local lexical ambiguities while manipulating the type of prosodic
boundary at which the ambiguity occurred, using French sentences and participants. We …

The location of phonological phrase boundaries was shown to affect lexical access by
English-learning infants of 10 and 13 months of age. Experiments 1 and 2 used the head …

We present a novel technique that automatically alerts authors of requirements to the
presence of potentially dangerous ambiguities. We first establish the notion of nocuous …

Pauses, disfluencies and language problems in Alzheimer's disease can be naturally
modeled by fine-tuning Transformer-based pre-trained language models such as BERT and …

Two experiments tested whether phonological phrase boundary cues, as produced by naïve
speakers, constrain syntactic analysis in French. Pairs of homophones belonging to different …

This study discusses the question of whether there is a linguistic difference between
classical Attic prose texts intended for public oral delivery and those intended for written …

Two experiments tested whether phonological phrase boundaries constrain online syntactic
analysis in French. Pairs of homophones belonging to different syntactic categories (verb …

This study examined the extent to which different measures of speechreading performance
correlated with particular cognitive abilities in a population of hearing-impaired people …

Pitch processing is a critical ability on which humans' tonal musical experience depends,
and which is also of paramount importance for decoding prosody in speech. Congenital …
