Lab Meeting, Summer 2015, Week 9

Awe- and Aw-inspiring readings (or just stuff you think deserves a mention)

  • A helpful cheat sheet, useful for me, who's slowly getting the hang of what ggplot wants in a dataset. --Z.

What we did over last week

Florian

  1. Edited grant proposal on learning novel syntactic structures with Scott Fraundorf. To be submitted last week of July.

  2. Edited introduction of Norcliffe, Harris, and Jaeger's overview for the special issue on cross-linguistics psycholinguistics that we have been putting together. Unfortunately, we're under quite some pressure to submit very soon.

  3. Read Hume, Wedel, Hall, and Jaeger on an information theoretic approach to phonology, in order to edit the presentation of the notion of resource costs.

  4. Feedback on Zach's project: "What's in an accent? Estimating joint (super-linear) increases in confusability due to multiple shifted phonetic continua".
  5. Feedback on Linda's most recent whale-like study of causality (320 participants, of which 120 are usable ..., but the results are there if one looks only at the first few block of testing).
  6. Feedback on Maryam's outline for her review paper on speech perception.
  7. Feedback on Masha's most recent set of studies on constituent length and ordering preferences. Long story short ;): Masha finds long before short ordering in verb-final (SOV/OSV-varying) languages but short before long in verb-initial (VSO/VOS-varying) languages! A really nice and clear finding.
  8. Feedback on Masha and Bozena's project on syntactic generalization in artificial language learning. This might be of interest to some of you. Remind me if you'd like to chat about it.

Kodi

  1. Continued writing/revising encyclopedia article on speech perception and cross-talker generalization
  2. Developed ideas for new experiments on adaptation and generalization

  3. Worked on reviewing manuscript for JASA

  4. Met with Dave to discuss ongoing and potential future projects
  5. Began updating my vitae

Andrew

  1. Caught up on almost 2 weeks worth of email after trip

  2. Started working through TODO list for new version of the lab website

  3. Helped Olga get the BCS 152 Tutorial into a git repo and onto GitHub

  4. Did some code cleanup and rewrites on the BCS 152 Tutorial

Olga

  1. Got the test question portion running of the tutorial
  2. Met with Florian to discuss the template, is a go after the bugs are fixed
  3. Met with Andrew, created a github account, made the tutorial under version control, got the source tree app, and identified the three major things that need to be fixed. After Andrew takes a look at it will work on making revisions.
  4. Created a timeline for the rest of July for the Tutorial progression
  5. Looked into what the RAs should be working on/ what type of work they're doing. Waiting for a response
  6. Started my Data Structures class and cried a little on the inside.

Esteban

  1. Attended the TANDEM-STRAIGHT follow-up tutorial by Meghan.
  2. Working LCN-paper revision edits.
  3. Drafted resubmission to JML special issue paper to respond to (mostly) friendly reviews.
  4. Started outlining my dissertation.

Dave

  1. Took notes on Meghan's tips on using STRAIGHT to generate continua and updated the tutorial README with the take-aways.

  2. Submitted position paper on selective adaptation as distributional learning (FINALLY), and posted submitted version to academia.edu

  3. Cleaned up some fMRI analysis code for doing hybrid functional/anatomical ROIs, and started on (please, God) a final set of analyses for the animals.
  4. Met with Kodi to get each other up to speed on current and (hopefully) future projects.
