Effects of Anatomical and Climatic Factors on Human Sound Systems

Supervisor: Dr. Daniel Friedrichs

Summary

This project aims to explore how anatomical differences (like vocal tract variations) and climatic conditions (such as temperature and humidity) affect language sound systems. You'll use computational tools and machine learning to analyze these factors separately, aiming to understand their distinct roles in shaping language. This project offers hands-on experience in linguistic data analysis and the opportunity to contribute to our knowledge of language evolution and diversity.
