Scatter Plot from Scientific Research

Model comparison using the WAIC. The models are arranged by their WAIC score, where lower WAIC values indicate a better model fit. The following models are shown, from right to left: the null model containing only intercepts; the base model estimating the global mapping; the in-group model estimating the interaction between country and language (we call this interaction ‘culture’); the corpus model from Fig. 2b ; and the big model, which is the in-group model additionally modelling speaker and sex differences. The error bars are standard errors of the WAIC.
