Investigating Novel Verb Learning in BERT: Selectional Preference Classes and Alternation-Based Syntactic Generalization
Tristan Thrush, Ethan Wilcox, Roger Levy
Previous studies investigating the syntactic abilities of deep learning models have not targeted the relationship between the strength of the grammatical generalization and the amo…
Structural Supervision Improves Few-Shot Learning and Syntactic Generalization in Neural Language Models
Ethan Wilcox, Peng Qian, Richard Futrell +3
Humans can learn structural properties about a word from minimal experience, and deploy their learned syntactic representations uniformly in different grammatical contexts. We asse…
On the Predictive Power of Neural Language Models for Human Real-Time Comprehension Behavior
Ethan Gotlieb Wilcox, Jon Gauthier, Jennifer Hu +2
Human reading behavior is tuned to the statistics of natural language: the time it takes human subjects to read a word can be predicted from estimates of the word's probability in…
A Systematic Assessment of Syntactic Generalization in Neural Language Models
Jennifer Hu, Jon Gauthier, Peng Qian +2
While state-of-the-art neural network models continue to achieve lower perplexity scores on language modeling benchmarks, it remains unknown whether optimizing for broad-coverage p…
