MFPS 28
Here’s what I’m doing this week: the 28th annual Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics conference. I am presenting a paper there, “A graphical foundation for schedules”, joint work with my PhD supervisors Guy McCusker and John Power. There’s a preliminary version of the paper which will eventually appear in ENTCS. The talk had slides, though they contained unnecessary illustrative animations which are not there on the pdf.
New paper: "Relating dynamic brain states to dynamic machine states: Human and machine solutions to the speech recognition problem"
Hey!
I just had a paper published in PLOS Computational Biology. It’s on some work I did with the Centre for Speech, Language and the Brain at Cambridge University. In it, we used a machine model of speech recognition to map phonetic sensitivities in human auditory cortex using magnetoencephalography neuroimaging data.
The paper is open-access, so you can read it here.
If you’re interested, you can read more about the kind of research I do over at my “professional” website.
New(ish) paper: "Entrainment to the CIECAM02 and CIELAB colour appearance models in the human cortex"
Not so long ago I had a paper published in Vision Research. It’s on some work I did some years ago with my friend and collaborator Andrew Thwaites. In it we look at the entrainment of magnetoencephalographic activity in early visual cortex to colour information in visual stimulus using two competing computational models of colour. In other words, when and where people’s brainwaves directly track the colour of moving images they were seeing on a screen, using two theories about how colour could be represented in the brain.
The paper is in Elsevier’s “open archive”, which hopefully means you can read it for free. If not, hit me up.
I don’t talk about my work too much here, but if you’re interested you can read more about what I do on my more professional website.
New preprint: "Understanding the role of linguistic distributional knowledge in cognition"
I have recently submitted a paper based on some work I have been doing at my job at the Embodied Cognition Lab at Lancaster University. In it, we look at a large set of linguistic distributional models commonly used in cognitive psychology, evaluating each on a benchmark behavioural dataset.
New preprint: "Linguistic Distributional Knowledge and Sensorimotor Grounding both Contribute to Semantic Category Production"
My colleagues Briony Banks, Louise Connell and I recently submitted a paper reporting research we’ve been doing at Lancaster University over the last year.
Needless to say, the Covid-19 lockdowns in the UK have been a substantial impediment to this work, so it’s really good to see it finally complete.
New paper in Cognitive Science: "Linguistic Distributional Knowledge and Sensorimotor Grounding both Contribute to Semantic Category Production"
A paper on which I am joint-first author, a preprint of which I mentioned here previously, has just been published in Cognitive Science.
If you don’t have access to Cognitive Science, you can get the paper from me.
New paper in Language, Cognition and Neuroscience: Understanding the role of linguistic distributional knowledge in cognition
A paper on which I am joint-first author, which I previously posted here as a preprint, has just (after a long time!) been published in the journal Language, Cognition and Neuroscience.
It should be open-access, but if for some reason you can’t see it properly there, I can give you a copy.
