A Possible Mechanism to Explain the Prograde Equatorial Jet of a Jupiter-like Gaseous Giant
Yuchen Lian, Pengshuo Duan, Dali Kong
Gaseous giants are characterized by their deep atmospheres, which lack clear boundaries with their interiors; therefore, their internal states could directly influence atmospheric…
Simulating the Emergence of Differential Case Marking with Communicating Neural-Network Agents
Yuchen Lian, Arianna Bisazza, Tessa Verhoef
Differential Case Marking (DCM) refers to the phenomenon where grammatical case marking is applied selectively based on semantic, pragmatic, or other factors. The emergence of DCM…
NeLLCom-X: A Comprehensive Neural-Agent Framework to Simulate Language Learning and Group Communication
Yuchen Lian, Tessa Verhoef, Arianna Bisazza
Recent advances in computational linguistics include simulating the emergence of human-like languages with interacting neural network agents, starting from sets of random symbols.…
Jupiter's equatorial quasi-quadrennial oscillation forced by internal thermal forcing
Yuchen Lian, Xianyu Tan, Yongyun Hu
Observations have shown that there exists downward propagation of alternating westward/eastward jets in Jupiter's equatorial stratosphere, with a quasi-period between four and six…
Communication Drives the Emergence of Language Universals in Neural Agents: Evidence from the Word-order/Case-marking Trade-off
Yuchen Lian, Arianna Bisazza, Tessa Verhoef
Artificial learners often behave differently from human learners in the context of neural agent-based simulations of language emergence and change. A common explanation is the lack…
The Effect of Efficient Messaging and Input Variability on Neural-Agent Iterated Language Learning
Yuchen Lian, Arianna Bisazza, Tessa Verhoef
Natural languages display a trade-off among different strategies to convey syntactic structure, such as word order or inflection. This trade-off, however, has not appeared in recen…
