Word learning under infinite uncertainty - Simulation codes and sample output
Richard A. Blythe, ANDREW D. M. SMITH, Kenny Smith · University of Edinburgh · 2016
These are codes to simulate the three models of word learning described in the paper "Word Learning Under Infinite Uncertainty" by R A Blythe, A D M Smith and K Smith, to appear in Cognition. These codes can be used to determine how long it takes a learner employing a cross-situational learning strategy to correctly identify a word's target meaning under various conditions. We also provide some scripts to reproduce the figures that are presented in the paper.
