Generalization, similarity, and Bayesian inference
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001. [All Versions]. [Preprint]. Shepard has argued that a universal law should govern generalization across different domains of perception and cognition, as well as across organisms from different species or even different planets. Starting…

How do people generalize causal relations over objects? A non-parametric Bayesian account link.springer.com
Computational Brain & Behavior, 2022. [All Versions]. [Preprint]. How do people decide how general a causal relationship is, in terms of the entities or situations it applies to? What features do people use to decide whether a new situation is governed by a new causal law or an…

On the Complexity of Bayesian Generalization proceedings.mlr.press
ICML'23, 2023. [All Versions]. [Project]. [Models]. This work examines concept generalization at a large scale in the natural visual spectrum. Established computational modes (i.e., rule-based or similarity-based) are primarily studied isolated, focusing on confined and…

Theory-based Bayesian models of inductive learning and reasoning cell.com
Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2006. [All Versions]. [Preprint]. Inductive inference allows humans to make powerful generalizations from sparse data when learning about word meanings, unobserved properties, causal relationships, and many other aspects of the world. Traditional…
