Recipes for Creativity: Iterative Generation and Evaluation in Large Language Models
Rens Anderson, Tessa Verhoef, Amirhossein Zohrehvand
Generative models are often evaluated through singular artifacts, whereas human creativity typically emerges through iterative generation, appraisal, and refinement. This pilot stu…

NeLLCom-Lex: A Neural-agent Framework to Study the Interplay between Lexical Systems and Language Use
Yuqing Zhang, Ecesu Ãrker, Tessa Verhoef +2
Lexical semantic change has primarily been investigated with observational and experimental methods; however, observational methods (corpus analysis, distributional semantic modeli…
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.…
