title: Grounded lexicon formation without explicit reference transfer: who's talking to who? creator: Vogt, Paul subject: Language subject: Computational Linguistics subject: Robotics description: This paper presents a first investigation regarding lexicon grounding and evolution under an iterated learning regime without an explicit transfer of reference. In the original iterated learning framework, a population contains adult speakers and learning hearers. In this paper I investigate the effects of allowing both adults and learners to take up the role of speakers and hearers with varying probabilities. The results indicate that when adults and learners can be selected as speakers and hearers, their lexicons become more similar but at the cost of reduced success in communication. publisher: Springer-Verlag date: 2003 type: Conference Poster type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://cogprints.org/3059/1/ecal2003.pdf identifier: Vogt, Paul (2003) Grounded lexicon formation without explicit reference transfer: who's talking to who?
