Full Changelog: v2.0.1...v2.0.2

v2.0.1

Minor updates and bugfixes, prepping for publishing to pypi

FAVE: Now in Python 3

This is a major update, thanks to the contribution of @chrisbrickhouse (#49).

The FAAValign.py and extractFormants.py scripts are now within the fave/ directory, and should still work the same as earlier versions.

v1.3.1

Didn't quite get the MFA implementation right the first time.

MFA compatibility

Now, if you add --mfa to your config file, you can run FAVE-extract to alignments produced by the Montreal Forced Aligner, as long as it has used the cmu dictionary.

Speaker fix

When initiating a Speaker class, default for speaker.year is now an empty string instead of None. Fixes issue #38.

Schwa Support

Up till now, if you included unstressed vowels in your measurements when using FAVE-extract (the default behavior, unless you add the --onlyMeasureStressed flag to your call or config file), schwas were classified as being /ʌ/. Now, CMU transcriptions of AH0 are given their own schwa classification, and are represented as @ in the plt_vclass output.

In addition, Keelan Evanini (@kevanini) has contributed a fix that accounts for smart quotes in transcriptions that get passed to FAVE-align, and has provided a command-line argument to define your path to HTK.

FAVE v1.2

This release includes a number of internal improvements, and a few changes to the user interface, hence the minor update bump. More information included in NEWS.md.

• Formatting of FAVE-extract config files has changed, see the FAVE-extract readme.
• Two new FAVE-extract options: tracks and pickle
• Improved Windows support
• New text output format, including more contextual information, and better labelling of columns.

FAVE 1.1.3

This update changes nothing about FAVE operation, but improves documentation. Git version information will now be written to .FAAVlog and .formantlog files. Zenodo will also be generating a DOI for this release.
