This project aims to evaluate the developmental trajectory of tongue control during speech, relating dynamic 3D vocal tract modelling to the acoustic signal. By optimising real-time MRI technology to capture and model articulatory movements, the project expects to accelerate understanding of how tongue control for speech is developed, mastered, and perturbed by factors such as rapid growth and foreign accent. Expected outcome is a new understanding of how different speakers' vocal tracts change and how speech is reshaped, informed by real physiological data. Significant benefits will be realised through refined methods and theory development for diverse fields e.g. linguistics, speech science, and automatic speech recognition/synthesis.

该项目旨在评估语音过程中舌头控制的发展轨迹，将动态3D声道建模与声学信号联系起来。通过优化实时MRI技术来捕捉和模拟发音运动，该项目有望加速理解语言的舌头控制是如何发展、掌握和受到快速增长和外国口音等因素的干扰的。预期的结果是一个新的理解如何不同的发言者的声道变化和如何语音重塑，由真实的生理数据通知。显著的好处将实现通过细化的方法和理论发展，为不同的领域，如语言学，语音科学，自动语音识别/合成。
