Pertti Palo studies how people produce speech by imaging the movement of the tongue and other articulators, mainly using ultrasound video and related signal-processing methods. Much of the work develops technical tools to measure tongue shape and motion reliably, and applies them to questions such as speech in children with cleft lip and palate, pre-speech articulation, and consonant production in Levantine Arabic. Some work also uses brain imaging (fMRI) and extends into medical topics like pregnancy and infant health.
