Learnability for the Information Bottleneck

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
The Information Bottleneck (IB) method provides an insightful and principled approach for balancing compression and prediction for representation learning. The IB objective I ( X ; Z ) - β I ( Y ; Z ) employs a Lagrange multiplier β

A heuristics matrix for evaluating the learnability of safety critical medical systems [PDF]

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal
The increasing use of medical devices in non-clinical settings has elevated the importance of learnability, a key aspect of usability, that is defined as how easily users can learn to operate a system.

An Eye Movement Study in Unconventional Usage of Different Software Tools

open access: yesSensors, 2023
One of the main challenges of Human-Computer Interaction is the creation of UIs that enable the use of different systems in an easy and understandable method. The study analyses the student audience who uses software tools differently from the basis.

Measuring Cognition Load Using Eye-Tracking Parameters Based on Algorithm Description Tools

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Writing a computer program is a complex cognitive task, especially for a new person in the field. In this research an eye-tracking system was developed and applied, which allows the observation of eye movement parameters during programming as a complex ...

Segmentability Differences Between Child-Directed and Adult-Directed Speech: A Systematic Test With an Ecologically Valid Corpus [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Mind, 2019
Previous computational modeling suggests it is much easier to segment words from child-directed speech (CDS) than adult-directed speech (ADS). However, this conclusion is based on data collected in the laboratory, with CDS from play sessions and ADS ...

Vowel unpredictability in Hijazi Arabic monosyllabic verbs

open access: yesGlossa, 2020
We study the distribution of vowels in the monosyllabic verbs of Urban Hijazi Arabic, showing that speakers use the presence of a root emphatic consonant to partially predict the quality of stem vowels.

The Credit Problem in parametric stress: A probabilistic approach

open access: yesGlossa, 2021
In this paper, we introduce a novel domain-general, statistical learning model for P&P grammars: the Expectation Driven Parameter Learner (EDPL). We show that the EDPL provides a mathematically principled solution to the Credit Problem (Dresher 1999). We

The Prosodic Acquisition Path Hypothesis: Towards explaining variability in L2 acquisition of phonology

open access: yesGlossa, 2016
Assuming that word-prosodic parameters are organized into a hierarchical tree where certain parameters are embedded under others, this paper proposes the Prosodic Acquisition Path Hypothesis (PAPH).

The iconicity and ease of learning of picture communication symbols: A study with Afrikaans-speaking children

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Communication Disorders, 2005
Graphic symbols form an important part of most augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) users' communication systems. Studies focusing on the way different graphic symbols are learned and retained are pivotal for a better understanding of the ...
