Priorless Recurrent Networks Learn Curiously (2020.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a recent study shows domain-general recurrent neural networks reproduce human language behaviours . a lack of a unified concept of number agreement between these processes is a limitation of the model . |
| Approach: | They propose to use domain-general recurrent neural networks without explicit linguistic inductive biases to reproduce human language behaviours. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can learn number agreement within unnatural sentences, the authors show . they show that the model has an effective understanding of singular versus plural for individual sentences . |
