COMPOSITIONALITY/NON-COMPOSITIONALITY OF IDIOMS: NON-NATIVE SPEAKERS’ CONSTRAINTS TO COMPREHENSION
Indonesian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2016 Informed by Jackendoff’s (1997) Representational Modularity (RM) Hypothesis which states that, similar to how people make sense of categories, they also systematically make sense of language.

Do Deep Neural Networks Model Nonlinear Compositionality in the Neural Representation of Human-Object Interactions? [PDF]
, 2019 Visual scene understanding often requires the processing of human-object interactions. Here we seek to explore if and how well Deep Neural Network (DNN) models capture features similar to the brain's representation of humans, objects, and their ...

Exploring explainable AI: category theory insights into machine learning algorithms
Machine Learning: Science and Technology, 2023 Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) is a growing field that aims to increase the transparency and interpretability of machine learning (ML) models. The aim of this work is to use the categorical properties of learning algorithms in conjunction with

Call combinations in birds and the evolution of compositional syntax. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2018 Syntax is the set of rules for combining words into phrases, providing the basis for the generative power of linguistic expressions. In human language, the principle of compositionality governs how words are combined into a larger unit, the meaning of ...

From holism to compositionality: memes and the evolution of segmentation, syntax, and signification in music and language [PDF]
, 2015 Steven Mithen argues that language evolved from an antecedent he terms “Hmmmmm, [meaning it was] Holistic, manipulative, multi-modal, musical and mimetic”.

Why and When Can Deep -- but Not Shallow -- Networks Avoid the Curse of Dimensionality: a Review [PDF]
, 2017 The paper characterizes classes of functions for which deep learning can be exponentially better than shallow learning. Deep convolutional networks are a special case of these conditions, though weight sharing is not the main reason for their exponential

A Study of Metrics of Distance and Correlation Between Ranked Lists for Compositionality Detection
, 2017 Compositionality in language refers to how much the meaning of some phrase can be decomposed into the meaning of its constituents and the way these constituents are combined.
