Grounding sound change in ideal observer models of perception
Zachary Burchill | T. Florian Jaeger
Proceedings of the 7th Workshop on Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics (CMCL 2017)

An important predictor of historical sound change, functional load, fails to capture insights from speech perception. Building on ideal observer models of word recognition, we devise a new definition of functional load that incorporates both a priori predictability and perceptual information. We explore this new measure with a simple model and find that it outperforms traditional measures.
