Survey on reinforcement learning for language processing (2021, background): “In general, language evolution is concerned with how a group of agents can create their own communication system [10].”
Discovering communication (2006, background): “In the last 10 years, a growing number of researchers have taken up the interdisciplinary challenge to understand language formation and evolution through computational and robotic models (see Cangelosi and Parisi 2002, Kirby 2002, Steels 2003 for general overviews of the ﬁeld).”
Progress in the Simulation of Emergent Communication and Language (2003, background): “In addition, there is a very recent collection of articles on the evolution of language and communication (Cangelosi & Parisi, 2002) containing papers very similar to earlier versions that we have already reviewed here.”
An Experimental Study of the Emergence of Human Communication Systems (2005, background): “The latter line of research has offered important insights into how communication systems might emerge (e.g., Cangelosi & Parisi, 2001; Hurford, 1989; Kirby, 2002; Skyrms, 2002; Steels, 1997) and how they might evolve over time (e.g., Briscoe, 2000; R. Clark & Roberts, 1993; Hare & Elman, 1995).”
Emergence of Linguistic Communication from Referential Games with Symbolic and Pixel Input (2018, methodology): “The referential game is a variant of the Lewis signaling game (Lewis, 1969), which has been extensively used in linguistic and cognitive studies in the context of language evolution (e.g., Briscoe, 2002; Cangelosi & Parisi, 2002; Steels & Loetzsch, 2012; Spike et al., 2016; Lazaridou et al., 2017).”
Beyond imitation: Zero-shot task transfer on robots by learning concepts as cognitive programs (2018, background): “ the changes from the input image to the output, a description that will not generalize to new situations. Concepts enable a higher level of description that generalizes to new situations, and ground (8,9) verbal expressions like “stack green objects on the right” with real-world referents. In contr”
The Evolution of Language: A Comparative Review (2005, unknown): “…of evolutionary linguistics has produced converging results that are relevant to some of the central questions in language evolution, and that have long resisted resolution by more traditional empirical methods (for reviews see Steels 1997; Briscoe 2002; Cangelosi and Parisi 2002; Kirby 2002).”
