Doing Psycholinguistics in Applied Linguistics: Foundations, Methods, and Future Directions

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Psycholinguistics seeks to explain how language is represented, processed, and acquired in the mind. In applied linguistics, this endeavor extends to understanding how diverse bilingual populations—including second language learners, heritage speakers, and individuals experiencing language attrition—acquire and use language across contexts ...

Bias-Reduction in Variational Regularization

open access: yes, 2016
The aim of this paper is to introduce and study a two-step debiasing method for variational regularization. After solving the standard variational problem, the key idea is to add a consecutive debiasing step minimizing the data fidelity on an appropriate

Teaching Mishaps With Mistakes: A Peer‐Led Seminar Using Student Case Studies to Enhance Retention

open access: yesTeaching Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional teaching often emphasizes correct methods, limiting opportunities to explore analytical errors and biases. We introduce a seminar framework that integrates peer‐to‐peer teaching with intentional exposure to statistical and machine learning mishaps through flawed, student‐designed case studies.

Modelling the surprising recolonisation of an understudied aquatic mammal in a highly urbanised area: fortune favoured the smooth‐coated otter in Singapore

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Ever‐growing human activities present an active and continuing threat to many species throughout the world. Nevertheless, concerted conservation efforts in some regions have balanced these threats and allowed endangered species to recolonise former parts of their original ranges and reverse their decline.

Tradeoffs between brain and digestive tissues across elevations in Typhlomys daloushanensis: evidence for sexual dimorphism

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
To cope with highly stochastic and/or heterogeneous environmental conditions, animals must balance energy resource allocation across physiological processes. The digestive tract and brain exhibit structural variations under strong developmental and selective pressures that vary across environmental gradients both between and within species.

Data privacy model using blockchain reinforcement federated learning approach for scalable internet of medical things

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has typical advancements in the healthcare sector with rapid potential proof for decentralised communication systems that have been applied for collecting and monitoring COVID‐19 patient data. Machine Learning algorithms typically use the risk score of each patient based on risk factors, which could help ...

What Frege asked Alex the Parrot: Inferentialism, Number Concepts, and Animal Cognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
While there has been significant philosophical debate on whether nonlinguistic animals can possess conceptual capabilities, less time has been devoted to considering 'talking' animals, such as parrots.
