A cross-linguistic model of the acquisition of inflectional morphology
- in English and Modern
, 2010
"... We present a connectionist model of a general system for producing inflected words. The Multiple Inflection Generator (MIG) combines elements of several previous models (e.g., association between phonological representations of stem and inflection form: Rumelhart & McClelland, 1986; multiple inf ..."

to the grammatical context in which the word appears. Our aim was to demonstrate that the model is able to capture developmental patterns in the acquisition of morphology in two different languages: one with a simple morphological system (English), and one characterized by rich morphology and absence of default
Cross-linguistic influence on morphology in the bilingual mental lexicon
- Studia Linguistica
"... Abstract. This article addresses the question if and, if so, how the acquisition and use of morphology in the second language is affected by L1 morphology. This issue is discussed in relation to a recent interdisciplinary model of the bilingual mental lexicon (Lowie 1998), in which affixes may have ..."

Simulating Developmental Patterns in the Cross-linguistic Acquisition of Inflectional Morphology
"... We present a connectionist model of a general system for producing inflected words. The Multiple Inflection Generator (MIG) combines elements of several previous models (e.g., multiple inflections for a grammatical class: Hoeffner & McClelland, 1993; lexical-semantic input: Joanisse & Seiden ..."

When MIG is trained under conditions of atypical computational constraints, it reproduces developmental patterns
Pronouns in competition: Predicting acquisition delays cross-linguistically 1
"... It is well known that English children between the age of 4 and 6 display a socalled Delay of Principle B Effect (DPBE) in that they allow pronouns to refer to a local c-commanding antecedent. Their guessing pattern with pronouns contrasts with their adult-like interpretation of reflexives. The DPBE ..."

(2005/6) optimality-theoretic account of the acquisition of pronouns and reflexives are combined into a single model. This model yields testable predictions with respect to the presence or absence of the DPBE in particular languages, in particular syntactic environments, and in comprehension and
Session 3: Non-Verbal Communication A Cross-Linguistic Annotation Model for Children’s Oral Language and Spontaneous Gestures
"... This paper deals with a cross-linguistic and intercultural perspective of child’s speech development in its multimodal and semiotic aspects. Research on gesture as well as cognitive science has presented data that show that the listener, or speaker, integrates auditory and visual information from li ..."

LANGUAGE AND COGNITIVE PROCESSES, 2000, 15 (4/5), 321–328 Cross-linguistic perspectives on morphological
"... The appreciation that morphological factors are essential building blocks in any model of lexical organisation is now widely accepted. Morphological structure is a necessary component in natural languages. It introduces into a language, elements of complexity as well as factors of redundancy. From a ..."

investigating morphological processing were brought together in the summer of 1999 for a workshop in Aix-en-Provence, France. The theme of this workshop was ‘‘Cross-Linguistic Perspectives on Morphological Processing’’. The papers presented in the workshop, which form the basis for the present special
ON THE ACQUISITION OF THE INDEFINITE ARTICLE: A CROSS-LINGUISTIC STUDY OF FRENCH, ITALIAN, ROMANIAN AND SPANISH CHILD SPEECH
"... The present article argues that the idea of morphology-driven syntax carries over to first-language acquisition. Morphology encodes properties of functional categories, i.e. particular features and feature values that must be set according to the target (adult) language during the acquisition proces ..."

process. In agreement with previous findings concerning the acquisition of functional categories in the verbal domain, we discuss here some cross-linguistic data with respect to the nominal functional domain. In this respect, specificity can be said to develop stepwise, as the result of the valuation
A developmental model of syntax acquisition in the construction grammar framework with cross-linguistic validation in English and Japanese
- Bull. Amer. Math. Soc

"... The current research demonstrates a system inspired by cognitive neuroscience and developmental psychology that learns to construct mappings between the grammatical structure of sentences and the structure of their meaning representations. Sentence to meaning mappings are learned and stored as gramm ..."

Cognitive Modeling of the Acquisition of a Highly Inflected Verbal System
"... How do children cope with the general regularities that govern language while keeping track of the exceptions to them? This question has been the subject of debate for many years and it is still an open question. In particular, learning the English past tense has been studied in depth given that it ..."

Are rules a thing of the past? The acquisition of verbal morphology by an attractor network

The model learned to produce phonological representations of stems and inflected forms in response to semantic ..."
