Abstract

Event-related brain potentials (ERP) are important neural correlates of cognitive processes. In the domain of language processing, the N400 and P600 reflect lexical-semantic integration and syntactic processing problems, respectively. We suggest an interpretation of these markers in terms of dynamical system theory and present two nonlinear dynamical models for syntactic computations where different processing strategies correspond to functionally different regions in the system’s phase space.

Fußnoten
1
Ungrammatical sentences are usually denoted by the * in linguistic examples.
 
2
Also an early left anterior negativity (ELAN) was observed for such violations (Friederici et al. 1993).
 
3
Note that we modified Smolensky’s original definition slightly: The ordered pairs (f, r) are the definiens of the filler/role binding f/r(s), the definiendum, which therefore has to stand in front of the set definition symbol “|”.
 
4
We shall see below, that the sum in Eq. 27 has to be replaced by the direct sum over tensor product spaces for a proper treatment of recursion.
 
5
Words u = u 1,…, u p , v = v 1,…, v q of finite length formed from symbols in T, can be concatenated to form a new word \(u \cdot v = u_{1}, \ldots, u_{p} v_{1}, \ldots, v_{q}\in{\mathbf{T}}^{\ast}.\) This concatenation product is associative: u ·(v ·w) = (u ·v) ·w, such that (T*,·) forms a semigroup. Note that the concatenation is generally not commutative, thus justifying the notion of a “quantum operator”.
