Probabilistic brains: knowns and unknowns
There is strong behavioral and physiological evidence that the brain both represents
probability distributions and performs probabilistic inference. Computational neuroscientists …

[HTML][HTML] The language faculty that wasn't: A usage-based account of natural language recursion
MH Christiansen, N Chater - Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 - frontiersin.org
In the generative tradition, the language faculty has been shrinking—perhaps to include only
the mechanism of recursion. This paper argues that even this view of the language faculty is …

The now-or-never bottleneck: A fundamental constraint on language
MH Christiansen, N Chater - Behavioral and brain sciences, 2016 - cambridge.org
Memory is fleeting. New material rapidly obliterates previous material. How, then, can the
brain deal successfully with the continual deluge of linguistic input? We argue that, to deal …
