SIMULATION SOFTWARE
1. NOUNVERB
Simulation Program
This is the program, developed in C, used to
simulate the evolution of nouns and verbs in agents consisting of a simple
2D arms. This has been used to generate the data pusblished, amongst other
papers, in:
Cangelosi A., Parisi D. (2001). How nouns and
verbs differentially affect the behavior of artificial organisms. In J.D.
Moore & K. Stenning (Eds.), Proceedings of the 23rd Annual
Conference of the Cognitive Science Society, London: Lawrence Erlbaum
Associates, 170-175. (preprint)
Cangelosi A., Parisi D. (in press). The
processing of verbs and nouns in neural networks: Insights from Synthetic
Brain Imaging. Brain & Language (pdf

2. PARSER for Language Universal
Simulation Program
This is the program, developed in C++, to study the
evolution of language universals (e.g. word order) under cognitive
constraints. The model and some preliminary results have been presented at
the 4th Evolution of language conference:
Turner S., Cangelosi A. (2002). Implicating
working memory in the representation of constituent structure and the
origins of word-order universals. In J. Hurford & T. Titch (Eds), Proccedings
of the 4th International Conference on the Evolution of Language, p.114
