Nicula, Bogdan; Dascalu, Mihai; Newton, Natalie N.; Orcutt, Ellen; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Learning to paraphrase supports both writing ability and reading comprehension, particularly for less skilled learners. As such, educational tools that integrate automated evaluations of paraphrases can be used to provide timely feedback to enhance learner paraphrasing skills more efficiently and effectively. Paraphrase identification is a popular…

Nicula, Bogdan; Dascalu, Mihai; Newton, Natalie; Orcutt, Ellen; McNamara, Danielle S. – Grantee Submission, 2021
The ability to automatically assess the quality of paraphrases can be very useful for facilitating literacy skills and providing timely feedback to learners. Our aim is twofold: a) to automatically evaluate the quality of paraphrases across four dimensions: lexical similarity, syntactic similarity, semantic similarity and paraphrase quality, and…

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…
