Exploring language development in autistic and TD children: individual differences, linguistic environment and conversational dynamics

Riccardo Fusaroli (Interacting Minds Center, Aarhus University) Le séminaire se tiendra en visioconférence via le lien : https://univ-amu-fr.zoom.us/j/2515421853?pwd=elpEeVhxRTV5b01rZGUxaWY4Qy9ZQT09 Language development is traditionally explored in terms of individual differences and/or linguistic environment.

Anything but boring: How looking at tasks can tell us more about language development.

Christina Bergmann (Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics) Le séminaire se tiendra en visioconférence via le lien : https://univ-amu-fr.zoom.us/j/2515421853?pwd=elpEeVhxRTV5b01rZGUxaWY4Qy9ZQT09 Abstract: Work that focuses on how we measure children's knowledge may seem a hurdle towards discovery. In this talk, I will argue that inspecting the methods we use can tell us a great deal about the underlying […]

Language development as a joint process: Why the simultaneous learning of Form, Content, and Use is more a help than a hindrance

via zoom

Abdellah Fourta (Aix-Marseille University & INRIA Paris) Abstract: To acquire language, children need to learn form (e.g., phonology), content (e.g., word meaning), and use (e.g., finding the right words to convey a communicative intent). The scientific study of language development has traditionally studied these dimensions separately. Indeed, one could imagine that children first acquire the […]

Kevin El Haddad  is a researcher in affective computing and Human-Agent interaction at the University of Mons. Abstract: Smiles and laughs (S&L) are among the most frequent and informative non-verbal expressions used in our daily interactions. Their incorporation into machine's communication skills is therefore a must in order to improve human-agent interaction (HAI) applications quality […]

Luc. H Arnal and Keith B. Doelling, Institut de l’Audition, Centre Pasteur, Paris XII. Communication signals such as speech or music, are complex signals that exploit acoustic features in a wide array of timescales. The auditory system responds differently to each timescale creating opportunity for sound designers, composers and human talkers to exploit these temporal […]
