«When scanning new input, the program looks for recurring patterns or interchangeable sequences,»

«to revise some of their preconceptions regarding language acquisition by children, language competence in adults and second-language instruction.»

«ADIOS relies on a statistical method for pattern extraction and on structured generalization ? two processes that have been implicated in language acquisition, ... Our experiments show that it can acquire intricate structures from raw data, including transcripts of parents' speech directed at two- or three-year-olds. This may eventually help researchers understand how children, who learn language in a similar item-by-item fashion and with very little supervision, eventually master the full complexities of their native tongue.»

«The algorithm -- the computational method -- for language learning and processing that we have developed can take a body of text, abstract from it a collection of recurring patterns or rules and then generate new material,»

«We've modeled a couple of experiments from developmental psycholinguistics,»

«The algorithm ? the computational method ? for language learning and processing that we have developed can take a body of text, abstract from it a collection of recurring patterns or rules and then generate new material,»

«Because such equivalence sets can contain other patterns ? in turn containing further patterns, and so on ? the resulting body of knowledge grows recursively, as a sort of forest of branching trees of possibilities,»

«For example, if the following three sentences appeared in a [text]?'I saw a film today, oh boy,' 'He saw a film today at the reception,' 'She saw a film today and liked it,'?the program would identify the sequence 'saw a film today,' and determine whether it's a statistically significant pattern, ... If so, the sequence is added to the software's lexicon and can be used to create new sentences.»
