Connectionist models of sentence processing must learn to behave systematically by generalizing from a small training set. To what extent recurrent neural networks manage this generalization task is investigated. In contrast to Van der Velde et al. (Connection Sci., 16, pp. 21–46, 2004), it is found that simple recurrent networks do show so-called weak combinatorial systematicity, although thei...

Though lithium-induced neurotoxicity usually occurs when serum lithium exceeds 2.0 mEq/1, reports and reviews document its occurence with serum lithium within the therapeutic range (Strayhorn and Nash 1977; Hansen and Amidsen 1978; Speirs and Hirsch 1978; West and Meltzer 1979). Neurotoxicity has even been described with serum lithium between 0.4 and 0.5 mEq/l (Hansen and Amidsen 1978). Many hy...

These are the texts of two lectures delivered on the summer school for advanced information processing in Varna, Bulgaria, which was held from the 26th until the 30th of august 1994. The summer school was part of a bigger Tempusexchange programme of the european community in which Bulgarian universities and universities of the Netherlands, Greece, Belgium and the United Kingdom took part. I was...

Several studies indicate that, during daylight hours, mangrove-lined shorelines can harbor high fish densities, with individuals presumably benefitting from reduced predation risk among the prop roots (e.g. Parrish 1989; Robertson & Blaber 1992; Laegdsgaard & Johnson 1995). Within mangrove shorelines, fish densities tend to be lower at night, as components of the assemblage disperse into adjace...

This paper discusses a case of constructional contamination (Pijpops and Van de Velde 2016; Pijpops et al. 2018), phenomenon which describes the relation between two or more constructions such that usage frequencies one construction influence patterns variation in another (Hilpert Flach 2022). Specifically, I investigate structures type she gave nod intelligence nodded with satisfaction on obje...
