论文摘要
我提出了一种在单词生产中的语义干扰效应的计算级模型。单词生产是一个率延伸问题,代理选择单词以最大程度地减少成本的度量,同时还将基于感知输入和行为目标计算输出单词的资源最小化。我表明,基于单词之间的基于相似性的干扰是在此设置中自然出现的,我提供了一系列模拟,表明该模型捕获了在Stroop和图片字干扰范式中观察到的一些关键的经验模式。我认为,干涉的速率分数说明提供了计算原理的高级形式化,这些计算原理在现有模型中更机械地实例化。
I present a computational-level model of semantic interference effects in word production. Word production is cast as a rate-distortion problem where an agent selects words to minimize a measure of cost while also minimizing the resources used to compute the output word based on perceptual input and behavioral goals. I show that similarity-based interference among words arises naturally in this setup, and I present a series of simulations showing that the model captures some of the key empirical patterns observed in Stroop and Picture-Word Interference paradigms. I argue that the rate-distortion account of interference provides a high-level formalization of computational principles that are instantiated more mechanistically in existing models.
