The Cognitive Neuroscience of Stable and Flexible Semantic Typicality
Typicality effects are among the most well-studied phenomena in the study of concepts. The classical notion of typicality is that typical concepts share many features with category co-members and few features with members of contrast categories. However,

Context, categories and modality: Challenges for the Rumelhart model [PDF]
Three issues are raised in this commentary. First, the mapping of semantic information into the different layers could be done in a more realistic way by using the Context layer to represent situational contexts.

Integrative priming occurs rapidly and uncontrollably during lexical processing [PDF]
Lexical priming, whereby a prime word facilitates recognition of a related target word (e.g., nurse ? doctor), is typically attributed to association strength, semantic similarity, or compound familiarity.

The distractor frequency effect in picture–word interference: evidence for response exclusion [PDF]
In 3 experiments, subjects named pictures with low- or high-frequency superimposed distractor words. In a 1st experiment, we replicated the finding that low-frequency words induce more interference in picture naming than high-frequency words (i.e ...

Image Feature Types and Their Predictions of Aesthetic Preference and Naturalness
Previous research has investigated ways to quantify visual information of a scene in terms of a visual processing hierarchy, i.e., making sense of visual environment by segmentation and integration of elementary sensory input.
