Do Type and Token Effects Reflect Different Mechanisms? Connectionist Modeling of Dutch Past-Tense Formation and Final Devoicing
Moscoso del Prado Martin, Fermin; Ernestus, Mirjam; Harald Baayen, R.
Brain and Language, v90 n1-3 p287-298 Jul-Sep 2004
In this paper, we show that both token and type-based effects in lexical processing can result from a single, token-based, system, and therefore, do not necessarily reflect different levels of processing. We report three Simple Recurrent Networks modeling Dutch past-tense formation. These networks show token-based frequency effects and type-based analogical effects closely matching the behavior of human participants when producing past-tense forms for both existing verbs and pseudo-verbs. The third network covers the full vocabulary of Dutch, without imposing predefined linguistic structure on the input or output words.
