Quantifying Prosodic Variability in Middle English Alliterative Poetry
Interest in the mathematical structure of poetry dates back to at least the 19 century: after retiring from his mathematics position, J. J. Sylvester wrote a book on prosody called The Laws of Verse.

متن کاملFinal Syllable Lengthening (FSL) in infant vocalizations.
Final Syllable Lengthening (FSL) has been extensively examined in infant vocalizations in order to determine whether its basis is biological or learned.

Eight normally hearing infants, aged 0;3 to 1;0, and ...

Syllables and other prosodic structures are characteristically predictable from segmenta...

Articulatory duration of vowels is often measured as the duration from jaw closure maximum to jaw closure maximum, flanking the production of the syllable nucleus. However, this method may not necessarily represent articulatory syllable duration, since the actual onset/offset of the syllable depends on the specific articulator (lip, tongue) that implements the articulation of the syllable onset...
