Blind insight: metacognitive discrimination despite chance task performance [PDF]
, 2014 Blindsight and other examples of unconscious knowledge and perception demonstrate dissociations between judgment accuracy and metacognition: Studies reveal that participants’ judgment accuracy can be above chance while their confidence ratings fail ...

Modular Forms as Classification Invariants of 4D N=2 Heterotic--IIA Dual Vacua [PDF]
, 2019 We focus on 4D $\mathcal{N}=2$ string vacua described both by perturbative Heterotic theory and by Type IIA theory; a Calabi--Yau three-fold $X_{\rm IIA}$ in the Type IIA language is further assumed to have a regular K3-fibration. It is well-known that one can assign a modular form $\Phi$ to such a vacuum by counting perturbative BPS states in ...

An independent axiomatisation for free short-circuit logic [PDF]
, 2017 Short-circuit evaluation denotes the semantics of propositional connectives in which the second argument is evaluated only if the first argument does not suffice to determine the value of the expression.

Developmental Stages of Perception and Language Acquisition in a Perceptually Grounded Robot [PDF]
, 2004 The objective of this research is to develop a system for language learning based on a minimum of pre-wired language-specific functionality, that is compatible with observations of perceptual and language capabilities in the human developmental ...

An Extended Sequence Tagging Vocabulary for Grammatical Error Correction [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We extend a current sequence-tagging approach to Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) by introducing specialised tags for spelling correction and morphological inflection using the SymSpell and LemmInflect algorithms. Our approach improves generalisation: the proposed new tagset allows a smaller number of tags to correct a larger range of errors.

Use of dual in standard Slovene, colloquial Slovene and Slovene dialects
, 2012 The dual is a grammatical expression of number in some languages (e.g. Slovene, Sorbian or Modern Standard Arabic) that denotes two persons or objects. In modern Indo-European languages, the dual is an archaism and one that has been preserved only in a ...

On the utility of the concepts of markedness and prototypes in understanding the development of morphological systems [PDF]
, 2010 In attempting to understand the history of the morphology of a language or group of languages, we occasionally face a problem of isomorphy, where two or more semantic categories evince the same formal marking.

Probing for Multilingual Numerical Understanding in Transformer-Based Language Models [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Natural language numbers are an example of compositional structures, where larger numbers are composed of operations on smaller numbers. Given that compositional reasoning is a key to natural language understanding, we propose novel multilingual probing tasks tested on DistilBERT, XLM, and BERT to investigate for evidence of compositional reasoning ...
