In the research, the phoneticians of LEPR (Institute of Philology, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences) make use of both conventional (dental-palatography, roentgenography, acoustic analysis of speech) and modern (magnetic-resonance imaging) investigation techniques. Objective experimental-phonetic data on the endangered languages have been obtained and reported to the scientific society. A computer database of the phonetics of the indigenous ethnic groups of Siberia and the neighboring regions has been formed, somatic tuning parameters have been revealed and a typology of the articulatory-acoustic bases is being developed.
