Abstract:

Cette these a pour objet d'etablir le role respectif de differents parametres dans un modele de l'acquisition de quelques prepositions par l'enfant francophone de 2 a 10, 11 ans : a, de, dans, pres de, sur et entre. D'une part, elle se propose de tester la validite d'une dichotomie des prepositions selon leur valeur (spatiale ou casuelle). D'autre part, elle tente de determiner quel modele d'acquisition (perceptivo-semantique et ou cognitif) est le plus pertinent pour expliquer la maitrise de ces elements.

Les parties d'un objet ne seraient pas uniquement extraites par segmentation perceptive mais aussi par confrontation avec les objets deja representes en memoire.

Abstract:

This work investigates a computational model of first language acquisition; the Categorical Grammar Learner or CGL. The model builds on the work of Villavicenio, who created a parametric Categorical Grammar learner that organises its parameters into an inheritance hierarchy, and also on the work of Buszkowski and Kanazawa, who demonstrated the learnability of a <i>k</i>-valued Classic Categorial Grammar (which uses only the rules of function application) from strings. The CGL is able to learn a <i>k</i>-valued General Categorial Grammar (which uses the rules of function application, function c

Abstract:

Discovering a word’s part of speech is an essential step in acquiring the grammar of a language. In this thesis we examine a variety of computational Bayesian models that use linguistic input available to children, in the form of transcribed child directed speech, to learn part of speech categories. Part of speech categories are characterised by contextual (distributional/syntactic) and word-internal (morphological) similarity. In this thesis, we assume language learners will be aware of these types of cues, and investigate exactly how they can make use of them. Firstly, we enrich the context

Abstract:

Most of the current research in L2 vocabulary acquisition has been too focused on what it is to learn a word, and has neglected how whole vocabularies grow or decline. In general, it is assumed that vocabulary gains and losses are incremental and follow a linear progression. This thesis postulates a model which considers several discrete stages of knowledge and accounts for the unstable nature of vocabulary knowledge, where words can change from one state to any other. Matrix algebra is a tool capable to operate with such a model and produce long-term forecasts of vocabulary size. Our experime

This thesis develops a range of prediction models for the purpose of predicting the acquisition of commercial banks in the European Union using publicly available data. Over the last thirty years, there have been approximately 30 studies that have attempted to identify potential acquisition targets, all of them focusing on non-bank sectors. We consider that prediction models developed specifically for the banking industry are essential due to the unusual structure of banks' financial statements, differences in the environment in which banks operate and other specific characteristics of banks t

This work address all of the stages required to take a sequence of images of an object and recover a 3D model in order to produce as system that maximises automation and minimises the demands placed on the user. To that end we present a practical implementation of an automatic method for recovering the positions and properties of the cameras used to take a series of images using a textured ground-plane. We then offer two contributions to simplify the task of segmentation an object observed in multiple images. The first, applicable to more simple scenes, automatically segments the object fixate

The ability to organize concepts (e.g., dog, chair) into efficient mental representations, i.e., categories (e.g., animal, furniture) is a fundamental mechanism which allows humans to perceive, organize, and adapt to their world. Much research has been dedicated to the questions of how categories emerge and how they are represented. Experimental evidence suggests that (i) concepts and categories are represented through sets of features (e.g., dogs bark, chairs are made of wood) which are structured into different types (e.g, behavior, material); (ii) categories and their featural representatio

Abstract:

This thesis is about the automatic acquisition of a particular kind of lexical knowledge, namely the knowledge of which noun senses can fill the argument slots of predicates. The knowledge is represented using probabilities, which agrees with the intuition that there are no absolute constraints on the arguments of predicates, but that the constraints are satisfied to a certain degree; thus the problem of knowledge acquisition becomes the problem of probability estimation from corpus data. The problem with defining a probability model in terms of senses is that this involves a huge number of pa

More and more computer applications are using three-dimensional models for a variety of uses (e.g. CAD, graphics, recognition). A major bottleneck is the acquisition of these models. The easiest method for designing the models is to build them directly from images of the object being modelled. This paper describes the design of a system, MOLASYS (for MOdeL Acquisition SYStem), that allows the user to build object models interactively from underlying images. This would not only be easier for the user, but also more accurate as the models will be built directly satisfying the dimensions, shape,

Abstract:

Language acquisition is one of the core problems in artificial intelligence. Current performance bottlenecks in natural language processing (NLP) systems result from a prerequisite for an incalculable amount oflanguage and domain-specific knowledge. Consequently, the creation of an automated language acquisition system would revolutionize the field of NLP. Connectionist models that learn by example (i.e. artificial neural networks) have been successfully applied to many areas of language acquisition. However, the most widely used class of these models, known as supervised connectionist models,

This thesis marks a departure from the traditional task-based distinction between sensorimotor adaptation and skill learning by focusing on the mechanisms that underlie adaptation and skill learning. I argue that adaptation is a recalibration of an existing control policy, whereas skill learning is the acquisition and subsequent automatization of a new control policy. A behavioral criterion to distinguish the two mechanisms is offered.

The core claim of CVCV is that syllable structure consists solely of onsets and nuclei, without any branching constituents. Consonant clusters are separated by empty nuclei, whose distribution is controlled by binary parameters. The model developed in this thesis is based on the assump

Abstract:

This note proposes the continuous treatment approach as a valuable alternative to propensity score matching for evaluating economic effects of merger and acquisitions (M&As). This framework allows considering the variation in treatment intensities explicitly, and it does not call for an arbitrary definition of cutoff values in traded ownership shares to construct a binary treatment indicator. We demonstrate the usefulness of this approach using data from European M&As and by relying on the example of post-M&A employment effects. The empirical exercise reveals some heterogeneities over the whol
