Iterated Learning: A Framework for the Emergence of Language (2003, background): “However, the iterated learning framework does not rule out either intra-generational cultural transmission (see [16] for an iterated learning model with both vertical and horizontal transmission, or [ 1 ] for an iterated learning model where transmission is purely horizontal) or a focus on communica”
Understanding near mergers: the case of morphological tone in Cantonese* (2007, background): “Batali (2002) investigates the emergence of recursive syntactic structures using an exemplar-based computational simulation of language acquisition.”
