This variation, however, is not entirely unpredictable, but rather fairly structured: in other words, the pronunciation of \/s\/ is not independent of that of \/z\/, and this type of structure is not fully reducible to speaker anatomy. Only in the past few years has the crosslinguistic investigation of this variation and structure become feasible with dramatic increases in computational power, storage, and the availability of \u201cmassively multilingual speech corpora.\u201d I present a novel methodological approach to processing such crosslinguistic phonetic resources and making them usable for the investigation of phonetic variation \u2014 its range and its limits \u2013 across the world\u2019s languages.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EFeaturing Eleanor Chodroff, SNF assistant professor in the Department of Computational Linguistics at the University of Z\u00fcrich.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Featuring Eleanor Chodroff, SNF assistant professor in the Department of Computational Linguistics at the University of Z\u00fcrich."}],"uid":"36009","created_gmt":"2024-12-30 17:20:05","changed_gmt":"2024-12-30 17:22:12","author":"cwhittle9","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2025-01-17T15:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2025-01-17T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2025-01-17T16:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2025-01-17 20:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2025-01-17 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2025-01-17 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Online via Zoom","extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/gatech.zoom.us\/j\/91868275598?pwd=ep8VXoNqSjoHcq8IaNPj4lZDllXRUo.1","title":"Join Online"}],"groups":[{"id":"1281","name":"Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts"},{"id":"1284","name":"School of Modern Languages"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EHongchen Wu\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:hwu480@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ehwu480@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
