Why Are There Developmental Stages in Language Learning? A Developmental Robotics Model of Language Development.
Cognitive science
Sep 28, 2016
Most theories of learning would predict a gradual acquisition and refinement of skills as learning progresses, and while some highlight exponential growth, this fails to explain why natural cognitive development typically progresses in stages. Models...
What can Neighbourhood Density effects tell us about word learning? Insights from a connectionist model of vocabulary development.
Journal of child language
Feb 17, 2016
In this paper, we investigate the effect of neighbourhood density (ND) on vocabulary size in a computational model of vocabulary development. A word has a high ND if there are many words phonologically similar to it. High ND words are more easily lea...
Learning to Produce Syllabic Speech Sounds via Reward-Modulated Neural Plasticity.
PloS one
Jan 25, 2016
At around 7 months of age, human infants begin to reliably produce well-formed syllables containing both consonants and vowels, a behavior called canonical babbling. Over subsequent months, the frequency of canonical babbling continues to increase. H...
A connectionist model of the retreat from verb argument structure overgeneralization.
Journal of child language
Nov 16, 2015
A central question in language acquisition is how children build linguistic representations that allow them to generalize verbs from one construction to another (e.g., The boy gave a present to the girl → The boy gave the girl a present), whilst appr...
Incremental Bayesian Category Learning From Natural Language.
Cognitive science
Nov 2, 2015
Models of category learning have been extensively studied in cognitive science and primarily tested on perceptual abstractions or artificial stimuli. In this paper, we focus on categories acquired from natural language stimuli, that is, words (e.g., ...
Assessing hippocampal development and language in early childhood: Evidence from a new application of the Automatic Segmentation Adapter Tool.
Human brain mapping
Aug 17, 2015
Volumetric assessments of the hippocampus and other brain structures during childhood provide useful indices of brain development and correlates of cognitive functioning in typically and atypically developing children. Automated methods such as FreeS...
Multiscale Modeling of Gene-Behavior Associations in an Artificial Neural Network Model of Cognitive Development.
Cognitive science
Apr 3, 2015
In the multidisciplinary field of developmental cognitive neuroscience, statistical associations between levels of description play an increasingly important role. One example of such associations is the observation of correlations between relatively...
Connectionist perspectives on language learning, representation and processing.
Wiley interdisciplinary reviews. Cognitive science
Jan 30, 2015
The field of formal linguistics was founded on the premise that language is mentally represented as a deterministic symbolic grammar. While this approach has captured many important characteristics of the world's languages, it has also led to a tende...
The JIBO Kids Corpus: A speech dataset of child-robot interactions in a classroom environment.
JASA express letters
Nov 1, 2024
This paper describes an original dataset of children's speech, collected through the use of JIBO, a social robot. The dataset encompasses recordings from 110 children, aged 4-7 years old, who participated in a letter and digit identification task and...
