Iterated Learning

Natural languages exhibit many \emph{semantic universals}: properties of meaning shared across all languages. In this paper, we develop an explanation of one very prominent semantic universal: that all simple determiners denote monotone quantifiers. While existing work has shown that monotone quantifiers are easier to learn, we provide a complete explanation by considering the emergence of quantifiers from the perspective of cultural evolution. In particular, in an iterated learning paradigm, with neural networks as agents, monotone quantifiers regularly evolve.

AbstractEvolved dispositions influence, but do not determine, how people think about economic problems. The evolutionary cognitive approach offers important insights but underweights the social transmission of ideas as a level of explanation. The need for asocialexplanation for the evolution of economic attitudes is evidenced, for example, by immense variations in folk-economic beliefs over time and across individuals.

Abstract The authors do the field of cultural evolution a service by exploring the role of non-social cognition in human cumulative technological culture, truly neglected in comparison with socio-cognitive abilities frequently assumed to be the primary drivers. Some specifics of their delineation of the critical factors are problematic, however. I highlight recent chimpanzee–human comparative findings that should help refine such analyses.
