Phonological Concept Learning
Linguistic and non-linguistic pattern learning have been studied separately, but we argue for a comparative approach. Analogous inductive problems arise in phonological and visual pattern learning. Evidence from three experiments shows that human learners can solve them in analogous ways, and that human performance in both cases can be captured by the same models. We test GMECCS (Gradual Maximu...
متن کاملLearning Phonotactics Using ILP
This paper describes experiments on learning Dutch phonotactic rules using Inductive Logic Programming, a machine learning discipline based on inductive logical operators. Two different ways of approaching the problem are experimented with, and compared against each other as well as with related work on the task. The results show a direct correspodence between the quality and informedness of th...
متن کاملPhonological naturalness and phonotactic learning
We investigate whether the patterns of phonotactic well-formedness internalized by language learners are direct reflections of the phonological patterns they encounter, or reflect in addition principles of phonological naturalness. As a research tool we employ the phonotactic learning system of Hayes and Wilson (2008), which carries out an unbiased search of the lexicon for valid phonotactic ge...
متن کاملInter- and intra-dimensional dependencies in implicit phonotactic learning
Is phonological learning subject to the same inductive biases as learning in other domains? Previous studies of non-linguistic learning found that intradimensional dependencies (between two instances of the same feature) were learned more easily than inter-dimensional ones. This study compares implicit learning of intraand inter-dimensional phonotactic dependencies. A series of six unsupervised...
متن کاملLearning unattested languages
This paper demonstrates the role of morphological alternations in learning novel phonotactic patterns. In an artificial grammar learning task, adult learners were exposed to a phonotactic pattern in which the first and last consonant agreed in voicing. Long-distance phonotactics encoded as strictly piecewise languages suggest that first-last phonotactic patterns should be unattested in natural ...
