From the perspective of the situated conceptualization framework, the primary purpose of
concepts is for categorizing and integrating elements of situations to support goal-directed …

We propose a hypothesis only baseline for diagnosing Natural Language Inference (NLI).
Especially when an NLI dataset assumes inference is occurring based purely on the …

Is it possible to learn something without being aware of it? How does emotion influence the
way we think? How can we improve our memory? Fundamentals of Cognition, third edition …

A significant body of research in cognitive neuroscience is aimed at understanding how
object concepts are represented in the human brain. However, it remains unknown whether …

Although the left hemisphere is critical for language, clinical, behavioral, and neuroimaging
research suggest that the right hemisphere also contributes to language comprehension. In …

Prediction without justification has limited utility. Much of the success of neural models can
be attributed to their ability to learn rich, dense and expressive representations. While these …

Abstract words constitute nearly half of the human lexicon and are critically associated with
human abstract thoughts, yet little is known about how they are represented in the brain. We …

Recognising an object involves rapid visual processing and activation of semantic
knowledge about the object, but how visual processing activates and interacts with semantic …

Understanding language learning and more general knowledge acquisition requires the
characterization of inherently qualitative structures. Recent work has applied network …

The contents and structure of semantic memory have been the focus of much recent
research, with major advances in the development of distributional models, which use word …
