View source for Jonathan and Tristan's Big Phonetic Project

This page is here for collaboration on Jonathan and Tristan's Big Phonetic Project.  Research questions, plans for proceeding, progress, and results will all be posted here.

== Research Questions ==

# What are the subjects' phonetic vowel spaces like?

=== Jonathan-specific ===
# What are [ə] and [ɨ] like in various environments (in open syllables, and closed syllables, closed syllables before labials, etc)?
# What is the vowel space like before /ɻ/ codas (does /Vɻ/ count as a nucleus, or a nucleus and a coda?  i.e., does it count as a diphthong or not?)

=== Tristan-specific ===
# What is the vowel space like before /l/?
# What is /k/ like before each vowel? (i.e. is there a categorical distinction of front vs back /k/, or is it gradient?)

== What needs to be done ==

=== Processing ===
* divide recordings into files by page
* choose which repetitions of what to measure (middle 3 of total 5 tokens per word?)

=== Phonetic Vowel Space ===
* Things we want to know about each vowel:
** F1, F2, length, diphthongisation
** and on a whim: F0 (voicing?), F3 (ɻ/ø)

* So we need to measure:
** length
** F0 at start
** F1 at start
** F2 at start
** F3 at start
** F0 at middle
** F1 at middle
** F2 at middle
** F3 at middle
** F0 at end
** F1 at end
** F2 at end
** F3 at end

=== Random Decisions ===

* Jonathan's /Vɻ/ clusters get measured as both VV and VC

=== Fields for storage of extracted data ===
* unique id; e.g. "JNWroses3"
* word in use; e.g. "roses"
* thing being measured (with phonemic transcription?); e.g. "ɨ (/ɻoz+ɨz/?)"
* all measured fields above; e.g. F0start: "150Hz"

=== Settings for measuring ===
* Measure downsampled mono audio @ 11025Hz
* Formant tracker settings: ... (coming soon)
* Pitch tracker settings: ... (coming soon)
* Script used: ... (coming soon)
* Method:
## Select vowel range, or vowel + offset range (both for some words)
## Run script
## Throw numbers into spreadsheet
## Repeat on next item

== Progress ==

=== Done ===

=== To do ===
* (both) <s>Decide on data storage medium</s> gnumeric
** <s>test gnumeric's python API</s>
* (both) Divide recordings into pages and standardise numbering; e.g. JNWp2, TAMp5
* (JNW) Write praat script
* (both) measure!
* (JNW) Write gnuplot graphing script
