Cracking the Code: Unveiling Hidden Patterns in Words, Speech, and Objects Through Implicit Statistical Learning
Cracking the Code: Unveiling Hidden Patterns in Words, Speech, and Objects Through Implicit Statistical Learning
Professor Shelley Xiuli Tong, Director of Speech, Language and Reading Lab (https://slrlab.edu.hku.hk/) Faculty of Education - The University of Hong Kong Abstract: Humans possess remarkable abilities to learn new words, acquire language, and recognize objects based on sparse and ambiguous inputs. These abilities are rooted in the robust and efficient learning mechanism of statistical learning, […]

Computational passive bioacoustics: Will AI really solve animal communication?
Computational passive bioacoustics: Will AI really solve animal communication?
Paul Best (Eq. Multisense & Body) has been awarded an 2024 ILCB post-doc grant to work on the topic of spatialised bioacoustics for the analysis of turn-taking in non-human interactions. Paul’s original background is in computer science and machine learning. During his PhD and post-doc in Toulon university, he worked on automating the analysis of […]

Different bodies, different minds: Biology as a central driving force in the building of cognitive functions?
Different bodies, different minds: Biology as a central driving force in the building of cognitive functions?
Marie MONTANT Abstract: By focusing on language, I will try to show that cognitive architectures are built from goal-driven perceiving and acting bodies in their physical environment, a perceptive that holds for humans as well as other animals. To illustrate this theoretical position, firstly, I will show in humans that words conveying time information are […]
