Qualia structures collapse for geometric shapes, but not faces, when spatial attention is withdrawn. [PDF]
Neurosci ConsciousThe effects of top-down attention on perception have been intensively studied using binary categorization tasks (e.g., seen vs. unseen). However, such tasks poorly characterise the quality of experience, or qualia, for short. To characterise attentional effects on qualia, we combined a dual-task attention paradigm with similarity rating tasks to ...

The Multilayered Structure of Qualia: An Extension of Structuralism and the Philosophy of Fluctuation [PDF]
This paper investigates the multilayered structure of ”qualia” in both human consciousness and artificial intelligence. Traditional dis- cussions on qualia have focused on the irreducibility of subjective expe- rience, often treating it as a static and ...

Automatic Acquisition of Qualia Structure from Corpus Data
IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems, 2007 This paper presents a method to automatically acquire a given noun's telic and agentive roles from corpus data. These relations form part of the qualia structure assumed in the generative lexicon, where the telic role represents a typical purpose of the entity and the agentive role represents the origin of the entity.

An Expanded Model for Perceptual Norming: Insights From Japanese Ideophones
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Iconicity is inherently grounded in sensory experience, yet few studies investigate how sensory information is packaged in iconic words. We present perceptual strength ratings for Japanese ideophones, to ask how sensory information is encoded in this word class.

The Grammar of Perception: A Case Study of Guambiano (Namtrik) and Duna
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Although the senses provide a common basis for our experience of the world, cross‐linguistic research has revealed substantial diversity across languages in how perceptual experiences are encoded in words. Such variability is also present at the level of grammatical structure, though the project of charting the parameters and limits of cross ...
