Learning principled bilingual mappings of word embeddings while preserving monolingual invariance

open access: yesConference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2016
Mapping word embeddings of different languages into a single space has multiple applications. In order to map from a source space into a target space, a common approach is to learn a linear mapping that minimizes the distances between equivalences listed

Bimodal bilingualism [PDF]

open access: yesBilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2008
Speech–sign or “bimodal” bilingualism is exceptional because distinct modalities allow for simultaneous production of two languages. We investigated the ramifications of this phenomenon for models of language production by eliciting language mixing from eleven hearing native users of American Sign Language (ASL) and English.
