How are 'Barack Obama' and 'President Elect' differentially stored in the brain? An ERP investigation on the processing of proper and common noun pairs. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:One of the most debated issues in the cognitive neuroscience of language is whether distinct semantic domains are differentially represented in the brain.

Effect of heuristics on serendipity in path-based storytelling with linked data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Path-based storytelling with Linked Data on the Web provides users the ability to discover concepts in an entertaining and educational way. Given a query context, many state-of-the-art pathfinding approaches aim at telling a story that coincides with the

Evaluating the task‐specificity model of verbal memory: Regional volumetric analyses in temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Verbal memory tasks differ in their cognitive demands and may rely on distinct left medial temporal structures. One model holds that verbal delayed recall is hippocampal dependent, whereas verbal paired associate learning relies on adjacent rhinal cortex.

How does the creation of new semantic relationships during dialogue impact long-term semantic representations after dialogue?

open access: yesActa Psychologica
Dialogue is an ideal setting for changing linguistic representations thanks to the repeated use of new words and meanings. Two experiments were conducted to examine the extent to which new semantic relationships created during dialogue may change ...

A test of the symbol interdependency hypothesis with both concrete and abstract stimuli. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
In Experiment 1, the symbol interdependency hypothesis was tested with both concrete and abstract stimuli. Symbolic (i.e., semantic neighbourhood distance) and embodied (i.e., iconicity) factors were manipulated in two tasks-one that tapped symbolic ...

Automated Detection of Non-Relevant Posts on the Russian Imageboard "2ch": Importance of the Choice of Word Representations

open access: yes, 2017
This study considers the problem of automated detection of non-relevant posts on Web forums and discusses the approach of resolving this problem by approximation it with the task of detection of semantic relatedness between the given post and the opening

Semantic relatedness and retrieval from semantic memory

open access: yes, 2023
The structure of semantic memory has often been investigated by using studies that manipulate the semantic relatedness of stimulus items, and use facilitation and inhibition effects to make inferences about semantic memory's structure. In the current work, we present two experiments using the visual world paradigm where we systematically manipulate the

Beyond the Classroom: Cognitive and Educational Insights Into Gameplay‐Based Second Language Learning

open access: yesFuture in Educational Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This pilot study investigated how the narrative‐rich Chinese AAA game Black Myth: Wukong supports advanced Mandarin learners. Using reflective journals, semi‐structured interviews, and exploratory electroencephalogram (EEG), we examined learners' cognitive, affective, and cultural experiences.

Reducing Large Semantic Graphs to Improve Semantic Relatedness

open access: yes, 2015
In the previous research the authors developed a family of semantic measures that are adaptable to any semantic graph, being automatically tuned with a set of parameters. The research presented in this paper extends this approach by also tuning the graph. This graph reduction procedure starts with a disconnected graph and incrementally adds edge types,
