Learning new words II: Phonotactic probability in verb learning.
Phonotactic probability, a measure of the likelihood of occurrence of a sound sequence, appears to facilitate noun learning (H. L. Storkel, 2001). Nouns and verbs, however, tend to differ in rate of acquisition, indicating that word-learning mechanisms may differ across grammatical class. The purpose of the current study was to examine the effect of phonotactic probability on verb learning. Thi...
متن کاملLearning new words: phonotactic probability in language development.
Though the influences of syntactic and semantic regularity on novel word learning are well documented, considerably less is known about the influence of phonological regularities on lexical acquisition. The influence of phonotactic probability, a measure of the likelihood of occurrence of a sound sequence, on novel word learning is investigated in this study. Thirty-four typically developing ch...
متن کاملLearning individual words and learning about words simultaneously
Children are guided by constraints and biases in word learning. In the case of the shape bias—the tendency to extend count nouns by similarity in shape—previous findings have revealed that learning plays an important role in its development (e.g., Smith et al., 2002). Some have proposed that children acquire inductive constraints like the shape bias by making inferences about observed data on m...
متن کاملLearning with Taxonomies: Classifying Documents and Words
Automatically extracting semantic information about word meaning and document topic from text typically involves an extensive number of classes. Such classes may represent predefined word senses, topics or document categories and are often organized in a taxonomy. The latter encodes important information, which should be exploited in learning classifiers from labeled training data. To that exte...
متن کاملLearning to Compose Words into Sentences with Reinforcement Learning
We use reinforcement learning to learn tree-structured neural networks for computing representations of natural language sentences. In contrast with prior work on tree-structured models, in which the trees are either provided as input or predicted using supervision from explicit treebank annotations, the tree structures in this work are optimized to improve performance on a downstream task. Exp...
