Meeting Description: 

The third conference on Experimental and Theoretical Advances in Prosody
(ETAP) is taking place this coming May 28-30, 2015, at the University of
Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. A special focus of this year’s ETAP is prosodic
variability. Prosodic processing presents a challenge to researchers because
of the many sources of variability in how prosodic phenomena area realized.
Prosodic information consists of bundles of features (e.g., pitch, duration,
loudness, intensity), but patterns of these features vary systematically
across different speakers, populations, dialects, and contexts. They also vary
randomly due to speech errors or noise in the environment. A long-standing,
critical issue in the field is understanding the nature of such variability in
prosodic information as well as understanding how listeners maintain their
prosodic representations despite the variable input. This conference aims at
bringing together researchers from different disciplines who work on these
issues, as well as researchers working on general questions in prosody
research. We will post Call for Papers on our website in October 2014.
