Children's difficulty in learning homonyms.
Mazzocco (1997) claimed that children have persistent difficulty in learning pseudo-homonyms--words like rope used to refer to a novel object (e.g. spade). Because the novel objects were familiar, the pseudohomonyms in her study were also synonyms (i.e. rope and spade both now mean spade). The results could therefore be due to children's well-known difficulties in learning synonyms. In Experime...
متن کاملHomonyms with Forgeable Identifiers
We consider here the Byzantine Agreement problem (BA) in synchronous systems with homonyms in the case where some identifiers may be forgeable. More precisely, the n processes share a set of l (1 ≤ l ≤ n) identifiers. Assuming that at most t processes may be Byzantine and at most k (t ≤ k ≤ l) of these identifiers are forgeable in the sense that any Byzantine process can falsely use them, we pr...

متن کاملDesirable Difficulty in Learning: A Computational Investigation
Certain difficulties of a word learning situation can promote long-term learning, and thus are referred to as “desirable difficulties”. We use a computational modelling approach to examine the possible explanatory factors of the observed patterns in a cross-situational word learning experiment. Our results suggest that the within-trial ambiguity and the presentation duration of each trial in ad...
متن کاملIntroducing difficulty-levels in pronunciation learning
This paper presents a method to introduce the notion of a student selected difficulty level for the task of pronunciation learning of a second language. Three difficulty levels, novice, acceptable and native, are constructed using a tri-/biand unigram language model each using a specific set of broad phonetic groups determined using underspecification. The evaluation of the experiment is based ...
