Lab Meeting, Spring 2016, Week 5

We'll go through posters by Kodi/Linda and Guillermo/Esteban and listen to Zach give a very nice polished dry run.
Many of you haven't responded about lab retreat. Please let me know. It would be really nice but it's, of course, optional. To give us a fair chance though at a retreat, I'd like to schedule it relatively soon.
My next paper project is to write an Annual Review of Linguistics article. Ideas welcome. These articles are meant to be review articles, i.e., on work we've mostly already done. I was asked to write about "Applications of Bayesian Probability in the Language Sciences", which is extremely broad and can probably be changed quite a bit.

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

Scripted sth to calculate the change in expected probability correct recognitions depending on whether one tracks talker-specific or marginal vowel distributions.
