Buttkicking: June 17

2009 Jun 17 in Buttkicking | Comments (0)

In the last gazillion months:
- I labeled a bunch of data
- I got much of my analysis method worked out
- I did a bunch more reading, have written up much of my lit review

In the next week and half:
- I need to write up my methodology section
- That will require some more figuring out how my analysis will go
- I should keep working on the labeling, but only as a break from writing

Here is a nice little bit of results

MDS plot of sandhi contours for old (blue) and young (red) speakers

MDS plot of sandhi contours for old (blue) and young (red) speakers


The three speakers in the lower right are the older urban speakers, and the two in the lower left are young urban speakers, as is the one in the middle. The one at the top is an older speaker from the village. There are noticeable differences with the two clusters, but the clustering is pretty reliable, not depending much on the various ways of representing the contours as vectors.
