Kiki or Bouba? Sound Symbolism in Vision-and-Language Modelsopenreview.net/forum?id=bfmSc1ETT9 作者:Morris Alper, Hadar Averbuch-Elor Affiliation:Tel Aviv University NeurIPS 2023 spotlight 本文是在 VLM 中挖掘一种名为 sound symbolism 的现象,这种现象讨论的是单词的读音是否和比表达的意思有关联。
bouba-kikiSound symbolism is the process by which speakers link phonetic features with meanings non-arbitrarily. For instance, speakers across languages associate non-words with rounded vowels, like bouba , with round shapes, and non-words without rounded vowels, like kiki , wi...
具体来说,当人们被要求给两个抽象图形分别命名为“布尔”(Bouba)和“基基”(Kiki)时,大多数人会将圆滑的形状称为“布尔”,而尖锐的形状称为“基基”。这种现象被广泛认为是一种跨文化的共性。 2. 布尔威普效应的实验 2.1 原始实验 布尔威普效应最早由德国心理学家沃尔夫冈·柯勒(Wolfgang Köhler)在20世纪20...
Sound-shape correlations have also been claimed to occur within the speech processing system. Thus Ramachandran and Hubbard (2001) suggested that the sharp changes in the visual direction of lines in spiky shapes mimic the sharp phonemic inflections of the sound kiki, but also the sharp ...
These results support a relationship between early auditory or linguistic deprivation, and performance on the bouba–kiki task, and are discussed in the light of the role of a sensitive period on the development of the effect. This study is the first to show that prelingual deafness affects ...
This investigation also probes object properties that can be involved in sound symbolic association, bringing the "bouba-kiki" paradigm, typically involving the use of shapes, into the realm of real-world objects. To shed light on ways that sound symbolism may operate in natural language, this ...
Western participants consistently match certain shapes with particular speech sounds, tastes, and flavours. Here we demonstrate that the "Bouba-Kiki effect", a well-known shape–sound symbolism effect commonly observed in Western participants, is also observable in the Himba of Northern Namibia, a ...
SOUND symbolismLANGUAGE acquisitionCURIOSITIES & wondersSTATISTICAL learningThe "bouba-kiki effect", where "bouba" is perceived round and "kiki" spiky, remains a puzzling enigma. We solve it by combining mathematical findings largely unknown in the field, with computational models and novel experimental...
We implemented a strict test of this prediction by taking advantage of sound-symbolism associations; here, the latter refer to relationships between phonemes and object characteristics relationships that participants readily find natural even if they have never encountered the items before. For instance,...
