Sleep facilitates learning a new linguistic rule.
Natural languages contain countless regularities. Extraction of these patterns is an essential component of language acquisition. Here we examined the hypothesis that memory processing during sleep contributes to this learning. We exposed participants to a hidden linguistic rule by presenting a large number of two-word phrases, each including a noun preceded by one of four novel words that func...
متن کاملA rule-based presentation order facilitates category learning.
We investigated the mechanisms by which concepts are learned from examples by manipulating the presentation order in which the examples were presented to subjects. We introduce the idea of a rule-based presentation order, which is a sequence that respects the internal organization of the examples within a category. We find that such an order substantially facilitates learning, as compared with ...
متن کاملNEW CRITERIA FOR RULE SELECTION IN FUZZY LEARNING CLASSIFIER SYSTEMS
Designing an effective criterion for selecting the best rule is a major problem in theprocess of implementing Fuzzy Learning Classifier (FLC) systems. Conventionally confidenceand support or combined measures of these are used as criteria for fuzzy rule evaluation. In thispaper new entities namely precision and recall from the field of Information Retrieval (IR)systems is adapted as alternative...
متن کاملSecond Language Experience Facilitates Statistical Learning of Novel Linguistic Materials.
Recent research has begun to explore individual differences in statistical learning, and how those differences may be related to other cognitive abilities, particularly their effects on language learning. In this research, we explored a different type of relationship between language learning and statistical learning: the possibility that learning a new language may also influence statistical l...
متن کاملInformation Theoretic Competitive Learning and Linguistic Rule Acquisition
In this paper, we propose a new information theoretic method for competitive learning, and demonstrate that it can discover some linguistic rules in unsupervised ways more explicitly than the traditional competitive method. The new method can directly control competitive unit activation patterns to which input-competitive connections are adjusted. This direct control of the activation patterns ...
