Language acquisition, data compression and generalization

How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Learning and Evaluating General Linguistic Intelligence (2019, background): “The online code is rooted in information theory and is based on connections between generalization, compression, and comprehension (Wolff, 1982; Chaitin, 2007).”
Reconciling simplicity and likelihood principles in perceptual organization. (1996, background): “, Anderson, 1990; Fried & Holyoak, 1984; Oaksford & Chater, 1994) and those that stress the importance of finding compressed representations (Redlich, 1993; Wolff, 1982).”
Learning syntactic structure (2007, methodology): “Borrowing structuralist terminology, some authors (Wolff 1982; Stolcke 1994) refer to these operations as syntagmatic merging (grouping words into syntactic units) and paradigmatic merging (grouping units into substitution classes).”
Simplicity: a unifying principle in cognitive science? (2003, background): “perception Sensoryinput/artificially captured images Filters in early vision Image compression [25] Early vision as compression [ 23 ,22]”
