CiwaGAN: Articulatory information exchange
Gašper Beguš, Thomas Lu, Alan Zhou, Peter Wu, Gopala K. Anumanchipalli
Humans encode information into sounds by controlling articulators and decode information from sounds using the auditory apparatus. This paper introduces CiwaGAN, a model of human spoken language acquisition that combines unsupervised articulatory modeling with an unsupervised model of information exchange through the auditory modality. While prior research includes unsupervised articulatory modeling and information exchange separately, our model is the first to combine the two components. The paper also proposes an improved articulatory model with more interpretable internal representations. The proposed CiwaGAN model is the most realistic approximation of human spoken language acquisition using deep learning. As such, it is useful for cognitively plausible simulations of the human speech act.
