Re: stability in CMs

[Stuart Rosen <stuart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think you could take the approach of using log-linear modeling to
statistically compare the two matrices to one another, rather than
treating diagonals and off-diagonals as something different.

With this approach, you could also collapse the matrices by phonetic
features (voicing, place and manner) before comparing, so as to
determine if changes were limited to a particular feature.

This might be relevant:

modeling of consonant confusion data.  Journal of the Acoustical Society
of America, 79(2), 518-525.
