A reassessment of frequency and vocabulary size in L2 vocabulary teaching [PDF]

Language Teaching, 2012
The high-frequency vocabulary of English has traditionally been thought to consist of the 2,000 most frequent word families, and low-frequency vocabulary as that beyond the 10,000 frequency level. This paper argues that these boundaries should be reassessed on pedagogic grounds.

Multi‐View Biomedical Foundation Models for Molecule‐Target and Property Prediction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecular foundation models can provide accurate predictions for a large set of downstream tasks. We develop MMELON, an approach that integrates pre‐trained graph, image, and text foundation models and validate our multi‐view model on over 120 tasks, including GPCR binding.

Scaling in Words on Twitter [PDF]

, 2019
Scaling properties of language are a useful tool for understanding generative processes in texts. We investigate the scaling relations in citywise Twitter corpora coming from the Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas of the United States.

High‐Conductivity Electrolytes Screened Using Fragment‐ and Composition‐Aware Deep Learning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a new deep learning framework that hierarchically links molecular and functional unit attributions to predict electrolyte conductivity. By integrating molecular composition, ratios, and physicochemical descriptors, it achieves accurate, interpretable predictions and large‐scale virtual screening, offering chemically meaningful insights for ...

Linking working memory and long-term memory: A computational model of the learning of new words [PDF]

, 2007
The nonword repetition (NWR) test has been shown to be a good predictor of children’s vocabulary size. NWR performance has been explained using phonological working memory, which is seen as a critical component in the learning of new words.

A vocabulary-size test of controlled productive ability [PDF]

Language Testing, 1999
It is important in the design of the vocabulary component of a teaching program that teachers are able to discover the state of their learners' vocabulary knowledge. It is also important that researchers can draw on a variety of vocabulary measures to investigate the nature of vocabulary growth.

Automatically Defining Protein Words for Diverse Functional Predictions Based on Attention Analysis of a Protein Language Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Understanding protein sequence–function relationships remains challenging due to poorly defined motifs and limited residue‐level annotations. An annotation‐agnostic framework is introduced that segments protein sequences into “protein words” using attention patterns from protein language models.

The Relationship between Vocabulary Size and Reading Comprehension among Japanese EFL Learners [PDF]

, 2017
This paper explores the correlation between reader performance on a standardized reading exam, which was gauged using scores from the reading section of the TOEFL ITP and the GTEC, and vocabulary size, which was measured by administering the bilingual ...

The Role of Actual and Purported Origin in e‐Commerce Wine Pricing: Evidence From Italian and French Names on Labels

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The origin of a product, if associated with good quality, can contribute to building a positive collective reputation, leading to a potential price premium. However, it is conceivable that a producer markets a product by evoking symbols, images, words, and values typical of places other than where it was designed or produced, creating a ...
