Some updates:
L was renamed Lanèo
The three previous videos were edited in two new presentations: (https://youtu.be/LYdaFZfC7Dc) and (https://youtu.be/E9vwi7Q4Uao)
Lanèo's phonetics is fully described.

Tloko / Omya redux (2015-06-09 11:18:20) :
Incidentally, I believe that there are 4096 glyphs in total. I arrived at that figure by identifying that all glyphs can be reduced to a grid of 9 dots, with lines connecting the dots. A line between two dots indicates that the corresponding boxes are connected. So, to count the number of glyphs, one merely determines how many possible combinations of lines there are, which comes to 2^12 = 4096.

Tloko / Omya redux (2015-06-09 10:57:25) :
That, is actually a wonderful idea. I had a similar notion a few weeks ago but dismissed it, partly because it dawned on me while driving and I was, of course, distracted. As I sit here now, though...I think it would be fairly easy, but might require a good bit of time given that I first need to develop a large number of glyphs before sorting them.
Thanks, Rhet.

Slightly easier/saner strategy/explanation: devise a classification system based on simple questions about the shape, e.g. "does it have one dot on the corner," "which corner is it in," etc. like a Chinese radical stroke-counting dictionary, but with more relevant criteria than number of strokes.

happiness thread (2015-06-08 19:56:33) :
Oh interesting.
sequence alignment isn't the interesting problem here though, for the most part that's probably going to be inferring proto-forms and rules from correspondences. Which I'm able to get fairly handily. Without training on my Chechen-Ingush-Batsbi data, the system was able to pick out correspondence which I know to be correct. What will be interesting is seeing if it can use a (probably statistical) model to infer reasonable ancestor forms, and identify conditioning environ...

happiness thread (2015-06-08 19:07:47) :
Yyyeah, you should've started with that mentality, I think. Sequence alignment is my speciality, and the functions optimized by the standard approaches are grossly incorrect from a biological standpoint; they just have momentum because they're verifiable and objective. The thought of trying to bring that into a linguistics setting makes me squeamish.

happiness thread (2015-06-08 17:11:19) :
There are concerns about that. But mostly I'm interesting in using simulated data to examine how things like inherited vocabulary size and overlap between children effect information recoverability.
Though I have suspicions that when it come to actual reconstruction, unsupervised machine learning might be viable.

...I think I know what she's doing, and I'm not completely certain I like it.
Do you realize you'll need to build a whole new model for every language family?
