Samar Ibrahim; Ghazala Bilquise – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Language is an essential component of human communication and interaction. Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, specifically in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and speech-recognition, have made is possible for conversational agents, also known as chatbots, to converse with language learners in a way that mimics human speech.…

Song Yang; Ying Dong; Zhong Gen Yu – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2024
AI chatbots, e.g. ChatGPT, are becoming increasingly popular in education as a means to enhance student learning experiences and improve teaching efficiency. This study utilizes NVivo 12 Plus to examine the role of AI chatbots in education, ethical considerations, and sentimental analysis regarding the utilization of ChatGPT in education. ChatGPT…

Monteiro, Kátia; Crossley, Scott; Botarleanu, Robert-Mihai; Dascalu, Mihai – Language Testing, 2023
Lexical frequency benchmarks have been extensively used to investigate second language (L2) lexical sophistication, especially in language assessment studies. However, indices based on semantic co-occurrence, which may be a better representation of the experience language users have with lexical items, have not been sufficiently tested as…

Unger, Layla; Yim, Hyungwook; Savic, Olivera; Dennis, Simon; Sloutsky, Vladimir M. – Developmental Science, 2023
Recent years have seen a flourishing of Natural Language Processing models that can mimic many aspects of human language fluency. These models harness a simple, decades-old idea: It is possible to learn a lot about word meanings just from exposure to language, because words similar in meaning are used in language in similar ways. The successes of…

Jiang, Hang; Frank, Michael C.; Kulkarni, Vivek; Fourtassi, Abdellah – Cognitive Science, 2022
The linguistic input children receive across early childhood plays a crucial role in shaping their knowledge about the world. To study this input, researchers have begun applying distributional semantic models to large corpora of child-directed speech, extracting various patterns of word use/co-occurrence. Previous work using these models has not…

Leydi Johana Chaparro-Moreno; Hugo Gonzalez Villasanti; Laura M. Justice; Jing Sun; Mary Beth Schmitt – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: This study examines the accuracy of Interaction Detection in Early Childhood Settings (IDEAS), a program that automatically transcribes audio files and estimates linguistic units relevant to speech-language therapy, including part-of-speech units that represent features of language complexity, such as adjectives and coordinating…

Hao Wu; Shan Li; Ying Gao; Jinta Weng; Guozhu Ding – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Natural language processing (NLP) has captivated the attention of educational researchers over the past three decades. In this study, a total of 2,480 studies were retrieved through a comprehensive literature search. We used neural topic modeling and pre-trained language modeling to explore the research topics pertaining to the application of NLP…

Ke Li; Lulu Lun; Pingping Hu – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Amid the ongoing discussion about the potential of LLMs (Large Language Models) to facilitate language learning, there has been a broad spectrum of views in academia. However, little is known about the different viewpoints of students and what contributes to these differences. In light of this, this study adopts Q-methodology, a mixed-methods…

Fu, Shixuan; Gu, Huimin; Yang, Bo – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
Traditional educational giants and natural language processing companies have launched several artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled digital learning applications to facilitate language learning. One typical application of AI in digital language education is the automatic scoring application that provides feedback on pronunciation repeat outcomes.…

Ní Chiaráin, Neasa; Ní Chasaide, Ailbhe – Research-publishing.net, 2018
This paper details the motivation for and the main characteristics of "An Scéalaí" ('The Storyteller'), an intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (iCALL) platform for autonomous learning that integrates the four skills; writing, listening, speaking, and reading. A key feature is the incorporation of speech technology. Speech…

Ziegler, Nicole; Meurers, Detmar; Rebuschat, Patrick; Ruiz, Simón; Moreno-Vega, José L.; Chinkina, Maria; Li, Wenjing; Grey, Sarah – Language Learning, 2017
Despite the promise of research conducted at the intersection of computer-assisted language learning (CALL), natural language processing, and second language acquisition, few studies have explored the potential benefits of using intelligent CALL systems to deepen our understanding of the process and products of second language (L2) learning. The…

Ota, Mitsuhiko; Skarabela, Barbora – Language Learning and Development, 2016
Infants' disposition to learn repetitions in the input structure has been demonstrated in pattern generalization (e.g., learning the pattern ABB from the token "ledidi"). This study tested whether a repetition advantage can also be found in lexical learning (i.e., learning the word "lele" vs. "ledi"). Twenty-four…

Kolodny, Oren; Lotem, Arnon; Edelman, Shimon – Cognitive Science, 2015
We introduce a set of biologically and computationally motivated design choices for modeling the learning of language, or of other types of sequential, hierarchically structured experience and behavior, and describe an implemented system that conforms to these choices and is capable of unsupervised learning from raw natural-language corpora. Given…

Hay, Jessica F.; Pelucchi, Bruna; Estes, Katharine Graf; Saffran, Jenny R. – Cognitive Psychology, 2011
The processes of infant word segmentation and infant word learning have largely been studied separately. However, the ease with which potential word forms are segmented from fluent speech seems likely to influence subsequent mappings between words and their referents. To explore this process, we tested the link between the statistical coherence of…

Barner, David; Chow, Katherine; Yang, Shu-Ju – Cognitive Psychology, 2009
We explored children's early interpretation of numerals and linguistic number marking, in order to test the hypothesis (e.g., Carey (2004). Bootstrapping and the origin of concepts. "Daedalus", 59-68) that children's initial distinction between "one" and other numerals (i.e., "two," "three," etc.) is bootstrapped from a prior distinction between…
