Measuring Form and Function in Language Models
Héctor Javier Vázquez Martínez, Charles Yang
We introduce quantitative metrics for child language acquisition to evaluate language models. Our focus is on the formal syntactic and functional discourse properties of determiner…
The Greedy and Recursive Search for Morphological Productivity
Caleb Belth, Sarah Payne, Deniz Beser +2
As children acquire the knowledge of their language's morphology, they invariably discover the productive processes that can generalize to new words. Morphological learning is made…
A Grounded Approach to Modeling Generic Knowledge Acquisition
Deniz Beser, Joe Cecil, Marjorie Freedman +4
We introduce and implement a cognitively plausible model for learning from generic language, statements that express generalizations about members of a category and are an importan…
ADAM: A Sandbox for Implementing Language Learning
Ryan Gabbard, Deniz Beser, Jacob Lichtefeld +5
We present ADAM, a software system for designing and running child language learning experiments in Python. The system uses a virtual world to simulate a grounded language acquisit…
