open access: yesLanguage and Cognition
Language comprehension requires integration of multiple cues, but the underlying mechanisms of how accentuation, as a significant prosodic feature, influences the processing of words with different levels of cloze probability remains unclear.

Auditory and motion metaphors have different scalp distributions: an ERP study

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
While many links have been established between sensory-motor words used literally (kick the ball) and sensory-motor regions of the brain, it is less clear whether metaphorically used words (kick the habit) also show such signs of embodiment. Additionally,

Incorporating Structured Commonsense Knowledge in Story Completion

open access: yes, 2018
The ability to select an appropriate story ending is the first step towards perfect narrative comprehension. Story ending prediction requires not only the explicit clues within the context, but also the implicit knowledge (such as commonsense) to ...

Cloze probability in typed text: How predictability in cloze, copying and picture naming tasks affects response times

open access: yes, 2021
The cloze probability (CP) task is used to investigate the way in which sentences are processed. Participants’ task is to complete a sentence that is presented without the final word; however, sentences vary in levels of CP. High CP sentences have a highly anticipated completion word (e.g.

Gated-Attention Readers for Text Comprehension

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we study the problem of answering cloze-style questions over documents. Our model, the Gated-Attention (GA) Reader, integrates a multi-hop architecture with a novel attention mechanism, which is based on multiplicative interactions between ...
