How Language Processing Constrains (Computational) Natural Language Processing: A Cognitive Perspective

In this paper I aim at sketching out in bare outline a new model/framework of language processing with its implications for natural language processing. Research in theoretical linguistics, computational linguistics and mathematical linguistics has delineated the ways natural language can be represented and modeled. Studies in cognitive (neuro)science, on the other hand, have shown how language...

How Sharp is Occam's Razor? Language Statistics in Cognitive Processing

According to the dominant view in cognitive science, language processing requires perceptual simulation of symbols. Various experiments have shown that words that share a perceptual relationship are processed faster. We have proposed an alternative view in which perceptual cues are encoded in language. However, experiments supporting perceptual simulation or language statistics have focused on ...

However, their utility as clinical risk markers is unclear in psychometric schizotypy, a group experiencing schizophrenia-like traits that is at putative high risk for psychosis. METHODS We examined whether introducing affective or cognitive load, two important stress vulnera...
