为澳大利亚原住民英语设计语音技术：机遇、风险与参与
Designing Speech Technologies for Australian Aboriginal English: Opportunities, Risks and Participation
AI总结：
本文以澳大利亚原住民英语语音技术项目为案例，探讨技术机遇与风险，并论证通过文化适宜和社区参与式设计实践可有效降低风险、支持原住民语言变体。
摘要：
在澳大利亚，后接触时期语言变体，包括克里奥尔语和国际语言的本地变体，是原住民社区与英语使用者之间被迫接触的结果。这些接触变体被广泛使用，但语言技术对其支持却十分不足。这一差距对使用这些变体的原住民社区参与公民和经济生活构成了障碍，并再现了当代原住民社会语言身份的少数化。本文关注这一背景下的三个问题。第一，语音技术能否支持澳大利亚原住民英语（一种本地化的英语变体）的使用者？第二，此类项目固有地存在哪些风险？第三，何种技术开发实践适合这一背景，研究者如何整合有意义的社区参与以降低风险？我们认为机遇确实存在——风险也同样存在——并通过一个案例研究来证明这一点，该案例研究探讨了一个旨在改进澳大利亚原住民英语语音技术的真实世界项目中的设计实践。我们讨论了如何在整个项目中整合文化适宜且具有参与性的流程。我们呼吁增加对原住民社区所使用的语言（包括接触变体）的支持，这些语言提供了实际的经济和社会文化效益，前提是必须实施参与性和文化安全的实践。
英文摘要：
In Australia, post-contact language varieties, including creoles and local varieties of international languages, emerged as a result of forced contact between Indigenous communities and English speakers. These contact varieties are widely used, yet are poorly supported by language technologies. This gap presents barriers to participation in civil and economic society for Indigenous communities using these varieties, and reproduces minoritisation of contemporary Indigenous sociolinguistic identities. This paper concerns three questions regarding this context. First, can speech technologies support speakers of Australian Aboriginal English, a local indigenised variety of English? Second, what risks are inherent in such a project? Third, what technology development practices are appropriate for this context, and how can researchers integrate meaningful community participation in order to mitigate risks? We argue that opportunities do exist -- as well as risks -- and demonstrate this through a case study exploring design practices in a real-world project aiming to improve speech technologies for Australian Aboriginal English. We discuss how we integrated culturally appropriate and participatory processes throughout the project. We call for increased support for languages used by Indigenous communities, including contact varieties, which provide practical economic and socio-cultural benefits, provided that participatory and culturally safe practices are enacted.
