Researchers agree that comprehenders regularly predict upcoming language, but they do
not always agree on what prediction is (and how to differentiate it from integration) or what …

Successful speech perception requires that listeners map the acoustic signal to linguistic
categories. These mappings are not only probabilistic, but change depending on the …

The neuroscience of perception has recently been revolutionized with an integrative
modeling approach in which computation, brain function, and behavior are linked across …

We consider several key aspects of prediction in language comprehension: its
computational nature, the representational level (s) at which we predict, whether we use …

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 …

A work that reveals the profound links between the evolution, acquisition, and processing of
language, and proposes a new integrative framework for the language sciences. Language …

Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of
language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and …

When we read or listen to language, we are faced with the challenge of inferring intended
messages from noisy input. This challenge is exacerbated by considerable variability …

We present a general information-theoretic argument that all efficient communication
systems will be ambiguous, assuming that context is informative about meaning. We also …

Recent studies of eye movements in reading and other information processing tasks, such
as music reading, typing, visual search, and scene perception, are reviewed. The major …
