  • Consciousness Is a Thing, Not a Process
    applied sciences Opinion Consciousness Is a Thing, Not a Process Susan Pockett School of Psychology, University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand; [email protected] Received: 30 October 2017; Accepted: 23 November 2017; Published: 2 December 2017 Featured Application: If the theory outlined here is correct, the construction of artificial consciousness will certainly be possible, but a fundamentally different approach from that currently used in work on artificial intelligence will be necessary. Abstract: The central dogma of cognitive psychology is ‘consciousness is a process, not a thing’. Hence, the main task of cognitive neuroscientists is generally seen as working out what kinds of neural processing are conscious and what kinds are not. I argue here that the central dogma is simply wrong. All neural processing is unconscious. The illusion that some of it is conscious results largely from a failure to separate consciousness per se from a number of unconscious processes that normally accompany it—most particularly focal attention. Conscious sensory experiences are not processes at all. They are things: specifically, spatial electromagnetic (EM) patterns, which are presently generated only by ongoing unconscious processing at certain times and places in the mammalian brain, but which in principle could be generated by hardware rather than wetware. The neurophysiological mechanisms by which putatively conscious EM patterns are generated, the features that may distinguish conscious from unconscious patterns, the general principles that distinguish the conscious patterns of different sensory modalities and the general features that distinguish the conscious patterns of different experiences within any given sensory modality are all described. Suggestions for further development of this paradigm are provided.

  • Running Head: HOW EFFICIENCY SHAPES HUMAN LANGUAGE 1
    Running head: HOW EFFICIENCY SHAPES HUMAN LANGUAGE 1 How Efficiency Shapes Human Language Edward Gibson1,∗, Richard Futrell2, Steven T. Piantadosi3, Isabelle Dautriche4, Kyle Mahowald, Leon Bergen5, & Roger Levy1,∗ 1Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2University of California, Irvine, 3University of California, Berkeley, 4University of Edinburgh, 5University of California, San Diego, ∗Corresponding authors: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract Cognitive science applies diverse tools and perspectives to study human language. Recently, an exciting body of work has examined linguistic phenomena through the lens of efficiency in usage: what otherwise puzzling features of language find explanation in formal accounts of how language might be optimized for communication and learning? Here, we review studies that deploy formal tools from probability and information theory to understand how and why language works the way that it does, focusing on phenomena ranging from the lexicon through syntax. These studies show how a pervasive pressure for efficiency guides the forms of natural language and indicate that a rich future for language research lies in connecting linguistics to cognitive psychology and mathematical theories of communication and inference. Keywords: language evolution, communication, language efficiency, cross-linguistic universals, language learnability, language complexity HOW EFFICIENCY SHAPES HUMAN LANGUAGE 2 How Efficiency Shapes Human Language Why do languages look the way they do? Depending on how you count, there are 6000-8000 distinct languages on earth. The differences among languages seem pretty salient when you have to learn a new language: you have to learn a new set of sounds, a new set of words, and a new way of putting the words together; nevertheless, linguists have documented a wealth of strong recurring patterns across languages [1, 2].

During this time I was not alone, I was blessed with many people, who helped me and taught me, and to whom I will always be grateful. Among those people, I would like to express my gratitude first and foremost to my advisor Matthew W Crocker. He guided me through this PhD while giving me the freedom to explore the ideas that I found most interesting. From him I learned about psycholinguistics, how science works, how to structure and pursue research, among many other lessons that will help me in my life. He is an excellent person and researcher, and I feel very honoured to have him as advisor. I would also like to acknowledge the help that I received from Harm Brouwer. He provided the code to generate the situation state space that was used throughout this dissertation, as well as comments that helped during the shaping of this work. I am grateful for that. I am also very grateful to my research group, who was always eager to help and give advice.

  • Generalized Optimal Linear Orders
    GENERALIZED OPTIMAL LINEAR ORDERS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of Science arXiv:2108.10692v1 [cs.CL] 13 Aug 2021 by Rishi Bommasani August 2020 © 2020 Rishi Bommasani ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT The sequential structure of language, and the order of words in a sentence specif- ically, plays a central role in human language processing. Consequently, in de- signing computational models of language, the de facto approach is to present sen- tences to machines with the words ordered in the same order as in the original human-authored sentence. The very essence of this work is to question the im- plicit assumption that this is desirable and inject theoretical soundness into the consideration of word order in natural language processing. In this thesis, we be- gin by uniting the disparate treatments of word order in cognitive science, psy- cholinguistics, computational linguistics, and natural language processing under a flexible algorithmic framework. We proceed to use this heterogeneous theoreti- cal foundation as the basis for exploring new word orders with an undercurrent of psycholinguistic optimality. In particular, we focus on notions of dependency length minimization given the difficulties in human and computational language processing in handling long-distance dependencies. We then discuss algorithms for finding optimal word orders efficiently in spite of the combinatorial space of possibilities. We conclude by addressing the implications of these word orders on human language and their downstream impacts when integrated in computational models. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Rishi Bommasani was born in Red Bank, New Jersey and raised in Marlboro, New Jersey.
