Anki addon to show knowledge over time? - ariariari - 2014-12-25
I've been using anki for vocab for about 6 months now and would like to be able to visualize how much knowledge I have had over time. I don't see a plugin for this, and am wondering if one exists. If not, I'm wondering if people here can tell me if it's possible to create it based on the data that anki has available.
My rough idea is to count a mature card as one you "know". And at every point in time (say a day) you "know" a certain number of cards. And so then you can create graphs based on knowledge per day. You might want to get fancy and somehow decrease knowlege if a card is mature but has not been reviewed in a while, but the basic idea is to visualize knowledge over time.
Does such a plugin exist? Is it possible to create it based on the info that Anki has in its db?
Thanks.

Anyway, here it is:

It's amazing how much the graph is dominated by my initial dump of Minna No Nihongo 1 in the beginning of my studies. Or rather, at the beginning of my re-studying Japanese, and using Anki for the first time.
I just started adding cards from my N3 vocab book. There are about 1,200 words/phrases in it, so if I continue with this I'll probably 5k vocab cards by the end of 2015. I'm wondering if there's anyone here who can say subjectively how their experience with the language changed when they made a jump like that?
Thanks.

If not all your cards are a single word but rather some are phrases/sentences, you might get a better estimate of your vocab size by using MorphMan and looking at your known.db. It can even give you a breakdown by part of speech.

1) Create a database of morphemes for something you want to read/watch, call it goal.db
2) Create a database of your known.db unioned with the new N3 words you plan to learn, call it futureKnown.db
3) Compare known.db vs goal.db and futureKnown.db vs goal.db. You can find out the change in number of words you'd have to learn via context, what percentage are various parts of speech (you can probably get the gist of things when not knowing a proper noun easier than not knowing a verb), etc.
Hopefully someone else has an answer for the subjective experience, but maybe this will at least help in the meantime.

FYI I seem to have a problem with it: I downloaded it, restarted anki, pressed crtl+m and it crashed. I submitted a ticket for this here: https://anki.tenderapp.com/discussions/add-ons/2681-morphman-crashes-when-i-click-crtlm. But since it looks like you are the creator I thought that I would post here as well.

Once you get it working, I'd love any input you have on new features you'd like to see.
