DESCRIPTION:Phonology Journal Club Guidelines \nSelecting an article: \nPlease visit the journals and proceedings and find something not covered in the lists below. \nPlease visit this page to see if anyone has done the article before\, and also to record your choice so others will not duplicate: \nhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1l6ZJ1T9QD1Mx8Ih3ZU2Tz2t4UHC5jPcF8-2DmwLy3kw/edit?pli=1# \nHere are some top journals that publish work in phonology:  Phonology\, Phonological Data and Analysis Language\, Natural Language and Linguistic Theory\, Linguistic Inquiry\, Glossa\, Journal of Linguistics \nYou can also look on lingbuzz.net. You can do old articles if you think others would find them helpful. \nPresenting an article: \nWe are looking for very brief\, top-down\, “what is the main point?” summaries\, short enough so we can do them all in 110 minutes. Try aiming for 7 minutes maximum. People normally bring a printed handout of about one page. \nDetails:  (i) It often helps to give the scientific context of the article up front. (ii) Be sure to cite your article on your handout so other people can follow up. (iii) Put your name on your handout so people can follow up with you. \n————————————————————————– \nBruce Hayes \nProfessor of Linguistics \nDepartment of Linguistics \n3125 Campbell Hall \nUniversity of California\, Los Angeles \nLos Angeles\, CA 90095-1543 \n(310) 825-0634 \nwww.linguistics.ucla.edu/people/hayes

SUMMARY:Psycholing/CompLing Seminar: Perkins/Hunter practice BU presentation
DESCRIPTION:Please join us this Thursday at 4:15 to hear a practice presentation for BU by Tim Hunter and Laurel Perkins. Details below. \nAlso note that the following week\, when some people are away at BU\, the rest of us will do a “journal club” meeting\, so please come to this week’s meeting with any suggestions for articles you want to read/present\, in case there’s time at the end to discuss that. If not\, we will have the discussion online. \nWord order acquisition from immature representations: A model for noise-tolerant learning of deterministic grammars\nChildren acquire their language’s canonical word order early in infancy\, despite immature abilities to identify clause arguments. Prior work proposes that learning requires prosodic or semantic support. We demonstrate that it is possible for learners to learn word order only from strings of imperfectly-identified noun-phrases and verbs. Our modelled learner chooses among grammars that deterministically produce a canonical word order\, while also considering probabilistic processes that introduce noise into the data. In simulations on child-directed English and French\, the model successfully separated signal from noise in order to identify canonical SVO word order in both languages. We find that successful learning does not require prosodic or semantic cues to sentence structure\, but benefits from determinism in the learner’s hypothesis space. This provides an alternative mechanism for regularization in learning\, where tendencies to regularize emerge from the learner’s expectation that its data are a noisy realization of a deterministic underlying system.

SUMMARY:CompLing/Psycholing Seminar: Liu/Mateu/Hyams practice BU Talk
DESCRIPTION:Please join us this Thursday at 4:15 for this practice BU talk: \nIntervention effects in Mandarin-speaking children’s comprehension of passives  \nMinqi Liu\, Victoria Mateu\, and Nina Hyams \nIn Mandarin\, passives with an external argument (EA) – “long passives” (1a) – are structurally different from “short passives” (1b)\, in which the EA is not projected (e.g.\, Huang 1999). Because the EA structurally intervenes in the dependency between the surface subject and its gap in long passives (2a) but not short passives (2b)\, the Intervention Hypothesis (e.g.\, Friedmann et al. 2009) predicts that (i) Mandarin long passives should be harder for children to comprehend – an Intervention Effect – and (ii) this Intervention Effect should decrease when the morphosyntactic features of the two arguments in long passives are distinct. \nWe tested 80 monolingual Mandarin-speaking 3- to 6-year-olds (M = 4;11) in a sentence-picture matching experiment with three sentence types (Actives\, Long passives\, and Short Passives) and found that long passives were the most difficult for children’s comprehension. \nFurthermore\, in this experiment we manipulated the classifiers of the argument DPs in order to examine the effect of featural match vs. mismatch between the two arguments in actives and long passives\, and to ask what kind of features is relevant in intervention. In particular\, we tested sentences containing one or two of these three classifiers: (i) a [PLURAL] classifier –xie that encodes the grammatical Number feature\, (ii) a shape-specific classifier -tiao that s(emantically)-selects for long-bodied entities such as snakes and fish\, and (iii) a general classifier –ge that is non-plural and not shape-specific. Data showed that a mismatch in Number (-xie vs. –ge)\, but not lexical properties such as body shape (-tiao vs. –ge)\, between the two arguments improves children’s comprehension of long passives\, but not actives. \nThese results are consistent with the predictions of the Intervention Hypothesis and support grammatical accounts to Intervention such as (featural) Relativized Minimality (e.g.\, Rizzi 1990\, 2004).

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Modeling early phonetic learning from natural speech- Naomi Feldman\, University of Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Theories of language acquisition have typically been developed using an idealization of the phonetic learning problem.  For example\, phonetic category learning models have used input that is much less variable than the speech children hear and have assumed that learners already know which dimensions of the speech signal to pay attention to.  In this talk\, I use a series of modeling studies to argue that taking seriously the complexity of children’s speech input has major implications for theories of phonetic learning. \nWe have worked to create models that work on naturalistic speech after finding that phonetic learning models that were developed on simplified data fail when trained on more realistic data.  Our first strategy has been to question theories of what is being learned: perhaps infants are acquiring a language-specific perceptual space during their first year of life\, rather than a set of phonetic categories.  Our second strategy has been to question theories of the learning mechanism: perhaps rather than looking for distinct acoustic clusters of sounds corresponding to phones\, learners can use statistical information that is more reliable in naturalistic speech.  In each case\, we have found that the models that succeed in phonetic learning on naturalistic speech differ in important ways from previous theories.  This work raises new questions about what young infants know about the sounds of their language and underscores the need to take into account the complexity of the data that children hear when building theories of language acquisition. \nThis is joint work with Kasia Hitczenko\, Thomas Schatz\, Stephanie Antetomaso\, Xuan-Nga Cao\, Yevgen Matusevych\, Kouki Miyazawa\, Emmanuel Dupoux\, Micha Elsner\, Sharon Goldwater\, and Reiko Mazuka.

SUMMARY:Psycholing/CompLing Seminar: Christian Muxica & Jesse Harris
DESCRIPTION:Selecting contextually relevant alternatives during comprehension\n\nAn expression in focus is standardly taken to evoke a contextually salient set of alternatives to itself (Rooth 1992). In an influential study\, Husband and Ferreira (2016) proposed that these alternative sets are derived online from the set of semantic associates primed by processing a word in focus. The authors argue that this process occurs via a selectional mechanism which maintains the activation of alternatives while that of non-alternative primes decays. However\, the semantic associates of foci are not always a superset of the contextually salient alternatives. For instance\, imagine a mural depicting a tank driving through a meadow. In this context\, ‘tank’ is a likely alternative to ‘flower’ in “Silvia only painted the [flower]F on the mural” despite the fact that these words presumably do not prime one another. Such examples present a gap in the literature and a possible challenge to the strictest interpretation of Husband and Ferreira (2016)’s proposal. I hypothesize that focus alternatives are generated through the interaction of discourse context and the question-under-discussion (Roberts 1996). I present a probe task experiment in which the alternative status of a non-associate to focus is modulated by context\, but the sentence containing focus itself remains the same. This design helps to isolate the hypothesized effects of discourse/QUD from that of semantic priming.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Some Half-Truths and Interim Conclusions about Liaison- Anne-Michelle Tessier\, UBC
DESCRIPTION:A very complicated issue in understanding morpho-phonological alternations concerns those phenomena that are pervasive\, frequent\, and phonotactically-motivated\, and yet exceptionful and lexically-sensitive. To what extent are such processes\, that apply idiosyncratically to different morphemes\, words and even phrases\, represented in a way that generalizes to novel forms? \nThis talk examines this issue via the “well-plowed ground”* of French liaison\, specifically those liaison consonants that come and go at the boundary between nouns and the words preceding them (e.g. les [z] amis\, ‘the friends’). My main goal is to assess the predictions that different analyses make about (i) how exceptional nouns resist liaison\, and (ii) how productive liaison should be with novel nouns. I report the results of an adult production + acceptability study\, primarily with L1 speakers of Laurentian French in Quebec\, which find liaison to be somewhat intermediate in its application as compared with regular vs. exceptional nouns. I also discuss computational simulations and child corpus studies that try to understand how learners eventually reach the knowledge state of our adult participants.  The overall picture is one in which learners and speakers are making really interesting generalizations about their lexicons and their grammars\, including some more abstract than almost any model might predict?… but which also require substantial individual variation.
