Paul Myles Eugenio

AI总结:

本研究提出一个局部连接的张量网络模型,利用口语词汇的局部语音相关性降低信息含量,从而促进词汇学习,并能在拉丁语和土耳其语上生成合理新词及预测言语错误。

摘要:

口语的演化受到言语经济性的约束,这取决于人类口腔结构等因素。这导致了口语词汇中的局部语音相关性。在此,我们证明这些局部相关性通过降低口语词汇的信息含量来促进其学习。我们通过构建一个局部连接的张量网络模型来实现这一点,该模型受用于多体物理的类似变分模型启发,利用这些局部语音相关性来促进口语词汇的学习。因此,该模型是语音记忆的最小模型,其中“学习发音”和“学习词汇”是同一回事。其结果是学会了生成对目标语言在语音上合理的新词的能力,并提供了言语行为过程中可能产生的最可能错误的层级结构。我们针对拉丁语和土耳其语词汇测试了我们的模型。(代码可在GitHub上获取。)

英文摘要:

Spoken language evolves constrained by the economy of speech, which depends on factors such as the structure of the human mouth. This gives rise to local phonetic correlations in spoken words. Here we demonstrate that these local correlations facilitate the learning of spoken words by reducing their information content. We do this by constructing a locally-connected tensor-network model, inspired by similar variational models used for many-body physics, which exploits these local phonetic correlations to facilitate the learning of spoken words. The model is therefore a minimal model of phonetic memory, where "learning to pronounce" and "learning a word" are one and the same. A consequence of which is the learned ability to produce new words which are phonetically reasonable for the target language; as well as providing a hierarchy of the most likely errors that could be produced during the action of speech. We test our model against Latin and Turkish words. (The code is available on GitHub.)
