MEWL: Few-shot multimodal word learning with referential uncertainty
Without explicit feedback, humans can rapidly learn the meaning of words. Children can
acquire a new word after just a few passive exposures, a process known as fast mapping …

Deep daxes: Mutual exclusivity arises through both learning biases and pragmatic strategies in neural networks
Children's tendency to associate novel words with novel referents has been taken to reflect a
bias toward mutual exclusivity. This tendency may be advantageous both as (1) an ad-hoc …

Mutual exclusivity in pragmatic agents
One of the great challenges in word learning is that words are typically uttered in a context
with many potential referents. Children's tendency to associate novel words with novel …
