Towards a Neuro-Cognitive Model of Human Sentence Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
A formal sentence processing system is proposed which simulates different eventrelated potential (ERP) elicitation between sentences with and without unambiguous case marking. The electroencephalographical data are based on German subordinate clauses and Japanese sentences. As a formal framework we adopt Dynamic Syntax (Kempson et al. 2001), which enables incremental update of information by underspecifying tree information. This is augmented with default syntactic and semantic specifications which reflect shallow but efficient human sentence processing.

Syntactic Underspecification in a Neuro-Cognitive Model of Human Sentence Processing
A formal linguistic model is proposed which simulates human neuro-cognitive behaviors in processing German sentences with and without unambiguous case markings. The grammar formalism is crucially based on syntactic underspecification as a key concept.
متن کاملNeuro-ACT Cognitive Architecture Applications in Modeling Driver’s Steering Behavior in Turns
Cognitive Architectures (CAs) are the core of artificial cognitive systems. A CA is supposed to specify the human brain at a level of abstraction suitable for explaining how it achieves the functions of the mind. Over the years a number of distinct CAs have been proposed by different authors and their limitations and potentials were investigated. These CAs are usually classified as symbolic and...
متن کاملA Cognitive Neurodynamic Approach to Prediction of Students’ Adaptation to College: An Ex-Post Facto Study
Introduction: Campus life tends to make social and academic demands on college students. To cope with these demands, students are required to use their neurocognitive skills of problem- solving and planning intentional actions that target towards adaptation to college. This paper presents an illuminating perspective that would inform understanding of a new approach to cognitive neuroscience. Th...
متن کاملA cognitive neuroscience perspective on embodied language for human-robot cooperation.
This article addresses issues in embodied sentence processing from a "cognitive neural systems" approach that combines analysis of the behavior in question, analysis of the known neurophysiological bases of this behavior, and the synthesis of a neuro-computational model of embodied sentence processing that can be applied to and tested in the context of human-robot cooperative interaction. We pr...
متن کاملTowards constructing an Integrative, Multi-Level Model for Cognition: The Function of Semantic Networks
Integrated approaches try to connect different constructs in different theories and reinterpret them using a common conceptual framework. In this research, using the concept of processing levels, an integrated, three-level model of the cognitive systems has been proposed and evaluated. Processing levels are divided into three categories of Feature-Oriented, Semantic and Conceptual Level based o...
