We quantitatively investigate what constitutes NLP research by examining research papers.
Our findings reveal a rising involvement of machine learning in NLP since the early nineties.
In post-2020, there has been a resurgence of focus on language and people.

We present a mapping of ARPABET/pinyin to SAMPA/SAMPA-SC and then to phonological features.
This mapping was tested for whether it could lead to the successful generation of native, non-native, and code-switched speech in the two languages.

We introduce a model for the generation of literary rhymes in Spanish, combining structures of language and neural network models.
Results obtained with a manual evaluation of the texts generated by our algorithm are encouraging.

In voice conversion, an approach showing promising results in the latest voice conversion challenge (VCC) 2020 is to first use an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model to transcribe the source speech into the underlying linguistic contents.
Such a paradigm, referred to as ASR+TTS, overlooks the modeling of prosody, which plays an important role in speech naturalness and conversion similarity.
We propose to directly predict prosody from the linguistic representation in a target-speaker-dependent manner, referred to as target text prediction (TTP)

We show that, unlike syntax, semantics is not brought to the surface by today's pretrained models.
We then use convolutional graph encoders to explicitly incorporate semantic parses into task-specific finetuning.

We employ frequentist inference to represent correlations between typological features and use this representation to train simple multi-class estimators that predict individual features.
Our best configuration achieved the micro-averaged accuracy score of 0.66 on 149 test languages.

This allows us to quantitatively probe cross-linguistic transfer and extend inquiries of Second Language Acquisition.
