Unsupervised Word Sense Disambiguation Using Transformer’s Attention Mechanism

open access: yesMachine Learning and Knowledge Extraction
Transformer models produce advanced text representations that have been used to break through the hard challenge of natural language understanding. Using the Transformer’s attention mechanism, which acts as a language learning memory, trained on tens of ...

The mirage of a “paradox” of dehumanization: How to affirm the reality of dehumanization

open access: yesJournal of Social Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper argues that the so‐called ‘paradox’ of dehumanization is a mirage arising from misplaced abstraction. The alleged ‘paradox’ is taken as a challenge that arises from a skeptical stance. After reviewing the history of that skeptical stance, it is reconstructed as an argument with two premises.

The Association Between Metalinguistic Awareness and Chinese Word Reading: A Three‐Level Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study involved a three‐level meta‐analysis on the correlations between metalinguistic awareness (i.e., orthographic, phonological, and morphological awareness) and Chinese word reading. Based on 16,823 individuals from 81 studies, the results revealed moderate associations between all three metalinguistic skills and Chinese word reading ...

Learning via Processing: Structural Priming Across Grammatical Structures and Languages in Early Second Language Development

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract We employed structural priming to test whether targeted exposure to unambiguous form–meaning mappings led to learning of noncanonical word orders, specifically in object relative clauses, among 165 low‐to‐intermediate‐level L1 German L2 learners of English.

Listening, Reading, or Both? Rethinking the Comprehension Benefits of Reading‐While‐Listening

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract The rising popularity of audiobooks in language learning has highlighted the need to understand their potential benefits in enhancing comprehension and the mechanisms driving these effects. In this registered report, we explored the hypothesis that reading‐while‐listening can enhance lower‐level decoding skills, in turn freeing up cognitive ...

How Flexible Are Grammars Past Puberty? The Case of Relative Clauses in Turkish‐American Returnees

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract How flexible are grammars after puberty? To answer this, we test returnees: heritage speakers (HS) born in an immigration context who returned to their homeland in later years. If returnees are targetlike, then language is still malleable after puberty; in contrast, if maturational effects are in play, postpuberty returnees will show ...

The cognitive role of concept variability

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
I present and defend concept variability, the view that concepts can admit of indefinitely many variations and changes in their representational contents without thereby losing their identity. I argue that the variability of concepts is central to their role in enabling cognition, and thus that a concept's content variability is, despite philosophical ...
