The world today is marked by the rapid and continuous expansion of forms of communication, and at the same time, by the increasing availability of technologies capable of handling large amounts of linguistic, visual, and audio data. However, in linguistics, the use of methods handling small amounts of data is prevalent. To fill this gap, we propose the employment, improvement, and expansi…
Professor Yves Clot's visit to LAEL, the graduate program of Applied Linguistics at PUC-SP, in collaboration with other institutions, particularly the Department of Public Health in São Bernardo do Campo, aims at discussing Brazilian researches which analyze teachers' work in order to initiate a debate on the theoretical principles developed by CNAM's work psychology team. It also aims at…
This research project focuses on the multidimensional analysis of the forensic suitability regarding a set of acoustic-phonetic parameters in comparisons involving genetically-related (i.e., identical twins) and non-genetically-related speakers in different dialects and speaking styles. Two forensic-related speaking styles will be under assessment: (i) recordings of spontaneous dialogues …
In Brazil, there is a sizeable population of elderly heritage speakers of Russian who descend from the first two immigration waves in the 20C, or are the third wave immigrants, stateless Russian refugees from China who came to Brazil as children in the 1950s with their families. They are early Russian-Brazilian Portuguese bilinguals. During the last years, the group of Dr. Sandra Madureir…
This study takes on an approach of experimental investigation on speech, which introduces methodological procedures of phonetic, perceptive and acoustic analysis. We have elected voice quality as the subject of this study, as it is a prosodic element with linguistic, paralinguistic and extralinguistic functions in speech. The aim of this project is to analyse the expressive use of voice q…
This research project aims to assess the performance of automatic speaker recognition using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data from speakers with varying degrees of similarity. The open-source SpeechBrain toolkit will be used for the analyses. The participant pool will consist of 80 speakers, including 10 identical and 10 non-identical male twin pairs, as well as 10 identical and 10 no…
