Representational Bias in Unsupervised Learning of Syllable Structure
Unsupervised learning algorithms based on Expectation Maximization (EM) are often straightforward to implement and provably converge on a local likelihood maximum. However, these algorithms often do not perform well in practice. Common wisdom holds that they yield poor results because they are overly sensitive to initial parameter values and easily get stuck in local (but not global) maxima. We...
متن کاملRepresentational format determines numerical competence in monkeys
A range of animal species possess an evolutionarily ancient system for representing number, which provides the foundation for simple arithmetical operations such as addition and numerical comparisons. Surprisingly, non-human primates tested in ecologically, highly valid quantity discrimination tasks using edible items often show a relatively low performance, suggesting that stimulus salience in...
متن کاملRepresentational Bias and Collaborative Inquiry
For a number of years, the author and his colleagues at the University of Pittsburgh’s Learning Research and Development Center (see acknowledgments) have been building, testing, and refining a diagrammatic environment intended to support secondary school children’s learning of critical inquiry skills in the context of science. The diagrams were first designed to capture scientific argumentatio...
متن کاملImplicit social cognition: from measures to mechanisms.
Most human cognition occurs outside conscious awareness or conscious control. Some of these implicit processes influence social perception, judgment and action. The past 15 years of research in implicit social cognition can be characterized as the Age of Measurement because of a proliferation of measurement methods and research evidence demonstrating their practical value for predicting human b...
متن کاملImplicit bias.
e all have it. Implicit bias was the shorthand that allowed our distant ancestors to make split-second decisions (friend or foe?) based on incomplete information. It provided a razor-thin reaction-time advantage that could mean life or death. But today, we no longer need to assume that people who do not look or sound like us pose an immediate threat. Instead, successful organizations and people...
