Phonotactics Embedding [3 Jun 2020]

Dec 27, 2022

A vector space representing linguistic phonotactics across languages.

Given a set of phonemes in a language's phonemic inventory, but with N removed, predict which N phonemes are missing.

Turn the weights used in the prediction into a vector.

Then generate random vectors and convert them back into phonemic inventories somehow.
