What swMethodSupport has to offer

Help with IT-based methods in phonetic and linguistic research

Example topics:

Statistics

  • Explanation of concepts and approaches (understandable "even" by people in the humanities)
  • Choice of statistical tests
  • Running statistical tests in R and interpreting the results

Speech research

  • Acoustic analysis
  • Understanding acoustic measurements (fundamental frequency, formants, spectrograms,...)

Open and free software for academic use

  • GNU/Linux as an alternative to commercial Windows or Mac
  • Better tools for academic writing (e.g. Pandoc, LaTeX), corpus analysis, data collection,...
