Research paper thumbnail of Statistical learning of adjacent and non-adjacent pairs in non-linguistic short sequences

However, current evidence indicates that adjacent and non-adjacent pairs are not equally learnable. The present study investigated the role of transitional probabilities during the learning of adjacent and non-adjacent pairs appearing in non-linguistic short sequences. Participants were exposed to four sequences of three stimuli ABC repeated randomly during the experiment, with each stimulus corresponding to a given position of a dot on a touchscreen. In the first experiment the transition BC of the triplet ABC was predictable while the first transition AB was unpredictable. The second experiment required the learning of the fully predictable non-adjacent pair AC while the transitions AB and BC were unpredictable. The results showed that participants learned adjacent pairs and had greater difficulty to learn the non-adjacent pairs. These data provide additional constraints for modeling statistical learning mechanisms

The former, TR-only languages, are represented by Romance and Germanic, while the latter, anything-goes languages, are typical for Czech. While TR-only languages instantiate words with all logically possible muta cum liquida clusters, anything-goes languages only implement a small minority of logically possible #RT, #TT and #RR clusters (while, like TR-only languages, providing for all #TR clusters). This talk proposes to test the prediction that really anything goes in anything-goes languages with the experimental technique of dichotic perception.

Participants were exposed to four sequences of three stimuli (ABC) repeated during the task, with each stimulus corresponding to the position of a red dot on a touchscreen. Participants were required to touch the dots as quickly as possible and response times were recorded between the first two stimuli (Transition Time 1 or TT1) and between the last two stimuli (TT2). In the first experiment the transition AB of a triplet ABC was fully predictable (p(B|A) = 1) while the second transition BC was unpredictable (p(C|B) = .5). The second experiment was a serial version of the exclusive-or (XOR), all first order transitional probabilities were equally unpredictable (p(B|A) = .5, p(C|B) = .5), while the combination of the first two stimuli fully predicted the last stimulus (p(C|AB) = 1). Results showed that participants were able to learn both type of transit...

Our hypothesis was that the extraction of transitional probabilities can prevail over frequency if the task involves prediction. Participants were exposed to four repeated sequences of three stimuli (XYZ) with each stimulus corresponding to the position of a red dot on a touch screen that participants were required to touch sequentially. The temporal and spatial structure of the positions corresponded to a serial version of the exclusive-or (XOR) that allowed testing of the respective effect of frequency and first- and second-order transitional probabilities. The XOR allowed the first-order transitional probability to vary while being not completely related to frequency and to vary while the second-order transitional probability was fixed (p(Z|X, Y) = 1). The findings show that first-order transitional probability prevails over frequency to predict the second stimulus from the fi...

Our main contribution consists of a rigorous control manipulation of the focus of attention in order to assure that subjects did not look at the banners. 1.

Our model produces two types of sequences, corresponding to two different types of cerebral functions: activation of regular or irregular sequences. The switch between the two types of activation occurs through the modulation of biological parameters, without altering the connectivity matrix. Some of the parameters included in our model are neuronal gain, strength of inhibition, synaptic depression and noise. We investigate how these parameters enable the existence of sequences and influence the type of sequences observed. In particular we show that synaptic depression and noise drive the transitions from one memory item to the next and neuronal gain controls the switching between regular and irregular (random) activations.
