Reassessing word frequency as a determinant of word recognition for skilled and unskilled readers.
The importance of vocabulary in reading comprehension emphasizes the need to accurately assess an individual's familiarity with words. The present article highlights problems with using occurrence counts in corpora as an index of word familiarity, especially when studying individuals varying in reading experience. We demonstrate via computational simulations and norming studies that corpus-base...

متن کاملDorsal stream modulation of visual word recognition in skilled readers
We examined the hypothesis of a visual magnocellular involvement in intact reading, by testing a group of skilled readers in lateralized versions of coherent motion detection and lexical decision tasks. Motion detection thresholds were used to divide subjects into groups of poor and good motion detectors, their performance in lexical judgment of four letter string types was then compared. Altho...
متن کاملWord frequency modulates morpheme-based reading in poor and skilled Italian readers
A previous study reported that, similar to young and adult skilled readers, Italian developmental dyslexics read pseudowords made up of a root and a derivational suffix faster and more accurately than simple pseudowords. Unlike skilled readers, only dyslexic and reading-matched younger children benefited from morphological structure in reading words aloud. In this study, we show that word frequ...
متن کاملMixture of Experts for Persian handwritten word recognition
This paper presents the results of Persian handwritten word recognition based on Mixture of Experts technique. In the basic form of ME the problem space is automatically divided into several subspaces for the experts, and the outputs of experts are combined by a gating network. In our proposed model, we used Mixture of Experts Multi Layered Perceptrons with Momentum term, in the classification ...
