Cobweb: An Incremental and Hierarchical Model of Human-Like Category Learning

no code implementations6 Mar 2024 Xin Lian, Sashank Varma, Christopher J. MacLellan

Cobweb, a human like category learning system, differs from other incremental categorization models in constructing hierarchically organized cognitive tree-like structures using the category utility measure.

Catastrophic Interference is Mitigated in Naturalistic Power-Law Learning Environments

no code implementations18 Jan 2024 Atith Gandhi, Raj Sanjay Shah, Vijay Marupudi, Sashank Varma

In addition, because our method is orthogonal to other methods, future research can combine training in power-law environments with other continual learning mechanisms.

Neural Network Models of Becoming a Cardinal Principle Knower

no code implementations26 Nov 2023 Vima Gupta, Sashank Varma

As children enter elementary school, their understanding of the ordinal structure of numbers transitions from a memorized count list of the first 50-100 numbers to knowing the successor function and understanding the countably infinite.

Pre-training LLMs using human-like development data corpus

no code implementations8 Nov 2023 Khushi Bhardwaj, Raj Sanjay Shah, Sashank Varma

Pre-trained Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown success in a diverse set of language inference and understanding tasks.
