Linguistic Cues Enhance the Learning of Perceptual Cues [PDF]

Psychological Science, 2005
When language is correlated with regularities in the world, does it enhance the learning of these regularities? This question lies at the core of both notions of linguistic bootstrapping in children and the Whorfian hypothesis. Support for an affirmative answer is provided in an artificial-noun-learning task in which 2-year-old children were taught to

In-process calibration of a non-destructive testing system used for in-process inspection of multi-pass welding

Materials & Design, 2020
In multi-pass welding, there is increasing motivation to move towards in-process defect detection to enable real-time repair; thus avoiding deposition of more layers over a defective weld pass.
