PHACTS about activation-based word similarity effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
English phonotactic learning is modeled by means of the PHACTS algorithm, a topological neuronal receptive field implementing a phonotactic activation function aimed at capturing both local (i.e., phonemic) and global (i.e., word-level) similarities among strings. Limits and merits of the model are presented.

PHACTS, a computational approach to classifying the lifestyle of phages
MOTIVATION Bacteriophages have two distinct lifestyles: virulent and temperate. The virulent lifestyle has many implications for phage therapy, genomics and microbiology. Determining which lifestyle a newly sequenced phage falls into is currently determined using standard culturing techniques. Such laboratory work is not only costly and time consuming, but also cannot be used on phage genomes c...
متن کاملThe Influence of the Lexicon on Visu Recognition
In this paper, we report on experiments that investigated form-based similarity effects in visual spoken word recognition. Specifically, we tested whether accuracy of speechreading a word was related to the number of words (neighbors) perceptually similar to that stimulus word and to its frequency of occurrence. In the first Experiment, the Neighborhood Activation Model (NAM) [1,2] was adapted ...
متن کاملAccessing Open PHACTS: interactive exploration of compounds and targets from the semantic web
Pharmacological research is hampered by scattered data which have to be retrieved by varying methods and in different data formats. This heterogeneity increases research costs and limits throughput. Over the last two years, the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform [1] has been developed as a centralized repository, integrating pharmacological data from a variety of information resources and providing...
متن کاملEffects of Semantic and Associative Relatedness on Automatic Priming
Models of automatic priming of word identification can be divided into those based on associative relations (e.g., spreading activation) and others based on semantic similarity (e.g., distributed models). In three experiments, associative relatedness was manipulated by presenting asymmetrically associated word pairs in both their forward and backward directions. Priming was comparable in both d...
متن کاملExplicit interaction information from WikiPathways in RDF facilitates drug discovery in the Open PHACTS Discovery
Open PHACTS is a pre-competitive project to answer scientific questions developed recently by the pharmaceutical industry. Having high quality biological interaction information in the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform is needed to answer multiple pathway related questions. To address this, updated WikiPathways data has been added to the platform. This data includes information about biological in...
