John Trueswell (Dept of Psychology, University of Pennsylvania) Abstract: It is tempting to conclude that children learn the meanings of words by observing their circumstances of use (e.g., observing that the word “dog” often co-occurs with dog-sightings). If this is the case though, how do children ever learn the vast majority of the words that […]

Summary: In this talk, we focus on main methods and models enabling humans to teach embodied social agents such as social robots, using natural interaction. Humans guide the learning process of such agents by providing various teaching signals, which could take the form of feedback, demonstrations and instructions. This overview describes how human teaching strategies […]

Anila D’Mello : l’Université de Texas   The cerebellum contains over 80% of the neurons in the brain, and over 50% of the neurons in the central nervous system. Despite being historically considered a motor structure, clinical and neuroimaging work find that the cerebellum is also important for cognition. This talk will present research integrating […]

There is no registration fee, but registration is mandatory. Previous ILS : Sopot (2012), Bergen (2013), […]

Limburgish is spoken in the north-western 12% of the area in which the Franconian tone is spoken, where Cologne was the medieval centre of prestige. It was there, after the beginning of the construction of the cathedral in 1248, that a remarkable lexical tone contrast arose from the contact between the hundreds of highly qualified […]

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, […]
