In this paper, we investigate whether aneural network model can learn the mean-ing of natural language quantifiers (no, some and all) from their use in visual con-texts. We show that memory networks per-form well in this task, and that explicit counting is not necessary to the system’s performance, supporting psycholinguistic evidence on the acquisition of quantifiers.

Abstract
In this paper, we investigate whether aneural network model can learn the mean-ing of natural language quantifiers (no, some and all) from their use in visual con-texts. We show that memory networks per-form well in this task, and that explicit counting is not necessary to the system’s performance, supporting psycholinguistic evidence on the acquisition of quantifiers.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
