1. New book: Exercises in Rethinking Innateness

From: elman(a)crl.ucsd.edu (Jeff Elman)
Subject: new book announcement: Exercises in Rethinking Innateness
EXERCISES IN RETHINKING INNATENESS
A Handbook for Connectionist Simulations
by Kim Plunkett and Jeffrey L. Elman
This book is the companion volume to Rethinking Innateness: A
Connectionist Perspective on Development (The MIT Press, 1996), which
proposed a new theoretical framework to answer the question "What does
it mean to say that a behavior is innate?" The new work provides
concrete illustrations--in the form of computer simulations--of
properties of connectionist models that are particularly relevant to
cognitive development. This enables the reader to pursue in depth some
of the practical and empirical issues raised in the first book. The
authors' larger goal is to demonstrate the usefulness of neural network
modeling as a research methodology.
The book comes with a complete software package, including
demonstration projects, for running neural network simulations on both
Macintosh and Windows 95. It also contains a series of exercises in the
use of the neural network simulator provided with the book. The
software is also available to run on a variety of UNIX platforms.

KEYWORDS: neuroethology; invariance; evolution;
speech perception; place of articulation; phonology
neural maps; speech production; coarticulation; homoplasy
ABSTRACT: Neuroethological studies of mammalian and avian auditory
systems have revealed species-specific specializations that may
have implications for human speech perception. Animal neural models
may provide a partial solution to the "noninvariance dilemma" in
the relation between the acoustic waveform and the phonetic segment
in human processing of consonant-vowel sequences. Critical sound
parameters used to establish species-specific categories in the
mustached bat and barn owl exhibit high correlation and linearity
for physical reasons. A cue long known to be relevant to the
perception of place of articulation is the second formant
transition (F2). "Locus equations" describe this correlation
between the F2 of a vowel and F2 measured at the onset of the
consonant-vowel transition across diverse speakers and languages,
and even when articulation is perturbed. This correlation (the
"Orderly Output Constraint") may contribute to an evolved
processing strategy in mammalian auditory systems.

ABSTRACT: Talents that selectively facilitate the acquisition
of high levels of skill are said to be present in some children
but not others. The evidence for this includes biological
correlates of specific abilities, certain rare abilities in
autistic savants, and the seemingly spontaneous emergence of
exceptional abilities in young children; but there is also
contrary evidence indicating an absence of early precursors for
high skill levels in young people. An analysis of positive
and negative evidence and arguments suggests that differences
in early experiences, preferences, opportunities, habits,
training and practice are the real determinants of excellence.
