Aditya Upadhyayula; Neil Cohn – Cognitive Science, 2025
Theories of visual narrative comprehension have advocated for a hierarchical grammar-based comprehension mechanism, but only limited work has investigated this hierarchy. Here, we provide a computational framework inspired by computational psycholinguistics to address hierarchy in visual narratives. The predictions generated by this framework were…

Weiyan Liao; Janet Hui-wen Hsiao – Cognitive Science, 2024
In isolated English word reading, readers have the optimal performance when their initial eye fixation is directed to the area between the beginning and word center, that is, the optimal viewing position (OVP). Thus, how well readers voluntarily direct eye gaze to this OVP during isolated word reading may be associated with reading performance.…

Rafferty, Anna N.; Brunskill, Emma; Griffiths, Thomas L.; Shafto, Patrick – Cognitive Science, 2016
Human and automated tutors attempt to choose pedagogical activities that will maximize student learning, informed by their estimates of the student's current knowledge. There has been substantial research on tracking and modeling student learning, but significantly less attention on how to plan teaching actions and how the assumed student model…

Testolin, Alberto; Stoianov, Ivilin; Sperduti, Alessandro; Zorzi, Marco – Cognitive Science, 2016
Learning the structure of event sequences is a ubiquitous problem in cognition and particularly in language. One possible solution is to learn a probabilistic generative model of sequences that allows making predictions about upcoming events. Though appealing from a neurobiological standpoint, this approach is typically not pursued in…

Lee, Hee Seung; Betts, Shawn; Anderson, John R. – Cognitive Science, 2016
Learning to solve a class of problems can be characterized as a search through a space of hypotheses about the rules for solving these problems. A series of four experiments studied how different learning conditions affected the search among hypotheses about the solution rule for a simple computational problem. Experiment 1 showed that a problem…
