Exploration of Neural Process and Language Performance
Abstract
Under this ROPO grant, Dr. Reggia provided a unique opportunity to participate with his graduate team who are studying various aspects of recovery of function using computational neural models. The stimulating environment provided many opportunities to find out about new approaches in studying brain processing. Further participation in attending related meetings, the Academy of Aphasia and both meetings organized by Dr. Reggia at the University, 1995 and 1998, Neural Modeling of Cognitive and Brain Disorders, provided bridges to the broader research community. Three graduate students were trained in LISP while re-implementing the HOPE model. Difficulties with the output control restricted our ability to run experiments on it at the end. A unique opportunity to share a graduate student computationally modeling word reading enabled us to develop a model of language lateralization. The University setting provided an environment for quiet study as well as intellectual exchange in these fields.
