Can Neural Adaptation Explain Word Choice?
Speakers refer to objects using terms on various levels of description. Labeling a poodle, they use the subordinate term “poodle” or the basic term “dog”. Our model attributes these effects to visual context, relying on the domain general mechanism of neural adaptation. Two SOMs represent visual and auditory categories. Word learning is modeled via simultaneous presentation of item and word for...
متن کاملTitle Reading the Neural Code in the Natural Visual World
The external world is represented in the brain as spatiotemporal patterns of electrical activity. Sensory signals, such as light, sound, and touch, are transduced at the periphery and subsequently transformed by various stages of neural circuitry, resulting in increasingly abstract representations through the sensory pathways of the brain. It is these representations that ultimately give rise t...
متن کاملCan information theory explain early word choice.
One problem of interest in child language study has been specifying what features of the speech situation determine what children will say. Several cognitively based approaches to child language development have proposed principles of 'informativeness' to explain the child's choice of word(s). These principles predict that the child will choose the 'most informative' element of a situation and ...
متن کاملLearning the visual word code
Visual words are peculiar cognitive entities living under several and apparently conflicting requirements. Although behavioural studies have taught us just how flexible visual word representations are in the brain, the trivial fact that we can distinguish between anagrams demands that these representations somehow carry letter order. In this chapter we present a connectionist network developed ...
متن کاملOrganization of high-level visual cortex in human infants
How much of the structure of the human mind and brain is already specified at birth, and how much arises from experience? In this article, we consider the test case of extrastriate visual cortex, where a highly systematic functional organization is present in virtually every normal adult, including regions preferring behaviourally significant stimulus categories, such as faces, bodies, and scen...
