Widespread Use of Echo Classification Everyone has seen images of unborn babies from medical ultrasound and weather maps of incoming storm clouds from radar. What these technologies have in common is that they involve the classification of echoes received from sensor systems that send out a signal and receive echoes from objects of interest. In each case, echoes are classified into meaningful information, much like how a sonar operator listens for echoes from enemy submarines.

Tinnitus: What Is It? Tinnitus is the perception of sound without an external source, often experienced as a constant or frequent ringing, humming, or buzzing. Tinnitus is reported by more than 50 million people in the United States alone (Shargorodsky et al., 2010); conservatively 1 in 10 US adults has tinnitus (Bhatt et al., 2016). It is estimated that 20-25% of patients with tinnitus consider the symptoms to be a significant problem (Seidman and Jacobson, 1996).
耳鸣是什么?耳鸣是一种没有外部来源的声音感知，通常表现为持续或频繁的铃声、嗡嗡声或嗡嗡声。据报道，仅在美国就有超过5000万人患有耳鸣(Shargorodsky et al.， 2010);保守地说，十分之一的美国成年人患有耳鸣(Bhatt et al.， 2016)。据估计，20-25%的耳鸣患者认为耳鸣症状是一个严重的问题(Seidman and Jacobson, 1996)。

Language Endangerment at a Critical Point A pandemic of linguicide has been decimating minority languages all over the world at an alarming rate. Its virulence has reached such a velocity that UNESCO (2003) projected that 90% of the world’s languages will be dead by the year 2100. Statistically speaking, according to McWorther (2003), “a language dies roughly every two weeks.” Currently, 2,923 of the world’s 7,111 languages are in serious stages of endangerment (Eberhard et al., 2019). The situation is so dire that the United Nations (UN) called attention to it by declaring 2019 the International Year of Endangered Language (IYIL 19). Now, the UN is taking an unprecedented step by declaring the decade from 2022 to 2032 the International Decade of Indigenous Languages (IDIL 22-32; see bit.ly/39uudCv). This article highlights what language endangerment entails for phonetic diversity and what experts have done and are doing to stem the tide. It also highlights speech synthesis as a new model of language documentation that can help preserve phonetic diversity even if a critically endangered language breathes its last. Speech synthesis is a technique used so that smart devices can speak and understand language. Siri and Alexa are among the products of speech synthesis. More details are given in A Simpler Speech Synthesis Model.
