SUMMARY:SPOT Research Cluster Workshop
DESCRIPTION:If you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nSPOT (Syntax-Prosody in Optimality Theory) is part of an NSF-funded research project aiming to create a computational platform that generates prosodic structure candidate sets from syntactic (grammatical) structure in different languages. SPOT aims to deepen our understanding of the relationship between grammatical structures on the one hand\, and how sentences are pronounced on the other\, in a typologically diverse array of natural languages. Following the very successful SPOT 1 workshop on Saturday\, Nov. 18\, 2017\, which led to successful funding from the NSF in 2018\, we will hold a THI-sponsored SPOT 2 workshop on Saturday\, May 4\, 2019. Besides presenting the developments of the program since SPOT 1\, the SPOT 2 workshop will also feature research talks on the Syntax-Prosody interface and Optimality Theory by invited speakers from the East Coast and Europe\, as well as Bay Area researchers. \nSPOT 2 Program: \n9:30am – 10:00am Pre-workshop coffee and bagels \n10:00am -12:00pm “SPOT: theory and analyses”\nJenny Bellik¹\, Gorka Elordieta²\, Junko Ito¹\, Nick Kalivoda¹\, Armin Mester¹\n (¹UC Santa Cruz\, ²University of the Basque Country)\nDiscussant: Alan Prince (Rutgers University) \n12:00pm -1:00pm Lunch (catered) \n1:00pm – 2:00pm “Nested Interacting Stress Window Systems”\nNaz Merchant (Eckerd College)\nDiscussant: Arto Anttila (Stanford University) \n2:00pm – 3:00pm “Recursive phonological phrasing in Italian”\nNick Van Handel (UC Santa Cruz)\nDiscussant: Gorka Elordieta (University of the Basque Country) \n3:00pm -3:30pm Coffee Break \n3:30pm – 4:30pm “Incorporation in Crow as phonological reduction”\nChris Golston\, CSUFresno\n (with John Boyle\, CSUFresno\, & Lewis Gebhard\, NEIU)\nDiscussant: Ryan Bennett (UC Santa Cruz) \n4:30pm – 5:30pm“Big accent distribution in Stockholm Swedish”\nSara Myrberg (Lund University\, Sweden)\nDiscussant: Nick Kalivoda (UC Santa Cruz) \n5:30pm-7:30pm Dinner at the Cowell Provost House

SUMMARY:SPOT (Syntax-Prosody in OT) Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nThis is a one-day IHR-sponsored workshop (Saturday\, Nov. 18\, 2017)\, called SPOT (“Syntax-Prosody in Optimality Theory”\, which is part of a research project aiming to create a computational platform that generates prosodic candidate sets from syntactic structure. The syntax-prosody interface is the study of how syntactic (grammatical) structures are mapped onto the prosodic structures in different languages. Several strands of work in prosodic theory have recently converged on a number of common themes\, from different directions\, broadly couched in Optimality Theory. Selkirk (2011) has developed a vastly simplified approach to the syntax-prosody mapping which distinguishes only three levels (word\, phrase\, and clause)\, and syntactic constituents are systematically made to correspond to phonological domains (“Match Theory”). In an independent line of research\, a long string of papers reaching back into the 1980s has convincingly demonstrated that recursive structures are by no means an exclusive property of syntax\, but also play a crucial role in phonology. One of the hallmarks of Match Theory is the idea that the main force interfering with syntax-prosody isomorphism is not some kind of non-isomorphic mapping algorithm flattening out the structure\, as first contemplated in SPE (Chomsky and Halle 1968\, 372) and more fully worked out in later proposals\, such as the edge-based theory built on one-sided alignment. It is rather the effect of genuine phonological wellformedness constraints on prosodic structure. \nBesides presenting the pilot SPOT program for comments\, the workshop will consist of research talks focused on the syntax-prosody interface by both invited speakers from the East Coast and Europe and Bay Area researchers. \nMore information about the IHR SPOT Research Cluster: http://ihr.ucsc.edu/portfolio/syntax-prosody-in-optimality-theory-spot/ \nPROGRAM \nSPOT Program: Saturday\, Nov. 18\, 2017 \n9:15am – 10:00am Pre-workshop coffee/tea\, bagels\, pastries and fruit \n10:00am -11:00am “Match Theory and the Asymmetry Problem: Intonational phrase marking in Stockholm Swedish” (abstract and handouts)\nShinichiro Ishihara (Lund University) \n11:15am -12:00pm “Syntax-Prosody in Optimality Theory” (abstract and handouts) Jenny Bellik and Nick Kalivoda (UC Santa Cruz) \n12:00pm -1:00pm Mexican buffet lunch \n1:00pm – 2:00pm“Syntactic Constituency Spell-Out through Match Constraints” (abstract and handouts)\nLisa Selkirk (UMass/Amherst) \n2:15pm – 3:00pm“Syntactic Constituency Spell-Out through Match Constraints” (abstract and handouts)\nNicholas Rolle (UC Berkeley) \n3:00pm -3:30pm Coffee Break \n3:30pm – 4:15pm“Syntactic Constituency Spell-Out through Match Constraints” (abstract and handouts)\nRyan Bennett\, Jim McCloskey (UC Santa Cruz)\, and Emily Elfner (York University) \n4:30pm – 6:30pm Post-workshop reception \nFor more information contact Junko Ito (ito@ucsc.edu) or Armin Mester (mester@ucsc.edu)
