{ "pk": 27295, "title": "Interactive Communicative Inference", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "In the search for an understanding of human communication,researchers often try to isolate listener and speaker roles andstudy them separately. Others claim that it is the intertwined-ness of these roles that makes human communication special.This close relationship between listener and speaker has beencharacterized by concepts such as common ground, backchan-neling, and alignment, but they are only part of the picture. Un-derlying these processes, there must be a mechanism for mak-ing inferences about our interlocutors’ understanding of wordsand gestures that allows us to communicate robustly and effi-ciently without assuming that we take the same words to havethe same meaning. In this paper, I explore this relationship be-tween language and concepts and propose an interactive mech-anism that can facilitate these latent conceptual inferences. Fi-nally, I show how this proposal paves the way for a more pre-cise account of the role of interaction in communication.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Communication; Coordination; Interaction; Prag-matics; Bayes; Cognitive Linguistics; Inference; Discourse" } ], "section": "Posters: Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/38f3w54b", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Larry", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Muhlstein", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California San Diego", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2017-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/27295/galley/16931/download/" } ] }
