An Information-Theoretic Account of Semantic Interference in Word Production [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 I present a computational-level model of semantic interference effects in online word production within a rate–distortion framework. I consider a bounded-rational agent trying to produce words.

Semantic interference affects speech production by increasing disfluencies, not errors [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Several studies have shown that different types of disfluency occur depending on the language production stage at which people experience difficulties.

Cumulative semantic interference is blind to morphological complexity and originates at the conceptual level. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2022 When naming a sequence of pictures of the same semantic category (e.g., furniture), response latencies systematically increase with each named category member.

The Role of Perceptual Interference, Semantic Interference, and Relational Integration in the Development of Analogical Reasoning [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 This study aimed to examine the role of perceptual interference, semantic interference, and relational integration (RI) in the development of analogical reasoning, and to compare the interactive pattern of interference and RI in children and adults.

Semantic gradients in picture-word interference tasks: Is the size of interference effects affected by the degree of semantic overlap? [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 We report two experiments attempting to identify the role of semantic relatedness in picture-word interference studies. Previously published data sets have rendered results which directly contradict each other, with one study suggesting that the stronger

Distributional analysis of semantic interference in picture naming. [PDF]
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove), 2017 In picture–word interference experiments, participants name pictures (e.g., of a cat) while trying to ignore distractor words. Mean response time (RT) is typically longer with semantically related distractor words (e.g., dog) than with unrelated words (e.g., shoe), called semantic interference.

The modulating effect of education on semantic interference during healthy aging. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Aging has traditionally been related to impairments in name retrieval. These impairments have usually been explained by a phonological transmission deficit hypothesis or by an inhibitory deficit hypothesis.

SemantIC: Semantic Interference Cancellation Toward 6G Wireless Communications
IEEE Communications LettersThis letter proposes a novel anti-interference technique, semantic interference cancellation (SemantIC), for enhancing information quality towards the sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks. SemantIC only requires the receiver to concatenate the channel decoder with a semantic auto-encoder.

Prompt-Assisted Semantic Interference Cancelation on Moderate Interference Channels
IEEE Wireless Communications LettersThe performance of conventional interference management strategies degrades when interference power is comparable to signal power. We consider a new perspective on interference management using semantic communication. Specifically, a multi-user semantic communication system is considered on moderate interference channels (ICs), for which a novel ...
