Bringing together experts in linguistics, neuroscience, psychology, medicine and computer science to understand and to model the way that language functions.
The objective is to create a generic model of the processing of language and its cerebral bases.

What can be learnt on language by studying animals without language?
Language being unique to the human cognitive system, one could logically consider that it can only be studied in the only species that features one: humans. Yet, a number of ILCB/BLRI researchers use animals including rodents, pet dogs, macaques and baboons to address the question of the cognitive and cerebral bases of language.

The main goal is to closely examine several models of the anatomo-functional architecture of language in the brain (Friederici, Hagoort, Poeppel, Price) to determine if and how they are influenced by linguistic theories ((Bybee, Chomsky, Fillmore, Goldberg, Jackendoff, Kay…). This implies reviewing, understanding and synthesizing the different models and their implications. The ultimate goal is to reach a better understanding of how to bridge the gap between linguistics and neurolinguistics. The various expertise within the BLRI/ILCB are very well-suited to address these general issues.

In this Transversal Questions we will develop new methods to tackle with the challenge of extracting and characterizing brain functional connectivity networks and their temporal evolution, in strict relation with the underlying anatomy and the performed cognitive tasks. We will apply these new tools to the analysis of specific datasets, in particular about cognitive experiments involving language analysis and production.

Machine learning and deep learning are powerful tools for analyzing and modeling data from neuroscience experiments in order to answer specific questions. All the work to be done to push forward the research in the field of the ILCB within this QT is grouped in three axes.
The first axis is about learning from data, Machine Learning and Deep Learning.
The second point concerns the design of machine learning systems for brain data.
The third axis focuses on the comparison of mental representations and computer representations
