    "abstract": "Classical accounts of child language learning invoke memory limits as a pressure to discover sparse, language-like representations of speech, while more recent proposals stress the importance of prediction for language learning. In this study, we propose a broadcoverage unsupervised neural network model to test memory and prediction as sources of signal by which children might acquire language directly from the perceptual stream. Our model embodies several likely properties of real-time human cognition: it is strictly incremental, it encodes speech into hierarchically organized labeled segments, it allows interactive top-down and bottom-up information flow, it attempts to model its own sequence of latent representations, and its objective function only recruits local signals that are plausibly supported by human working memory capacity. We show that much phonemic structure is learnable from unlabeled speech on the basis of these local signals. We further show that remembering the past and predicting the future both contribute to the linguistic content of acquired representations, and that these contributions are at least partially complementary.",

                "text": "How children acquire language from the environment is one of the fundamental mysteries of cognitive science. Much theoretical, experimental, and computational research into this question has focused on acquiring abstractions over lowerorder symbols, such acquiring morphemes from phoneme sequences or syntactic structures from word sequences (Chomsky, 1965; Gold, 1967; Elman, 1991; Saffran et al., 1996; Albright, 2002; Klein and Manning, 2004; Goldwater et al., 2009; Christodoulopoulos et al., 2012, inter alia) . Children, however, do not get symbolic input; symbolic representations at any level of granularity constitute abstractions inferred from highly variable, noisy, and information-rich perceptual signals like audition and vision. This work joins a growing computational literature exploring the kinds of architectures and learning objectives that best support acquisition of linguistic representations directly from the speech signal without supervision (Versteegh et al., 2015; Dunbar et al., 2017) . Such models can be used to test questions about language acquisition under more realistic assumptions about the input signal, especially to the extent that they reflect known constraints on human cognition (Shain and Elsner, 2019; Begu\u0161, 2020) .",

For example, Baddeley et al. (1998) invoke constraints on working memory, arguing that because the speech signal is too rich to support full retention during real-time language processing (Baddeley and Hitch, 1974) , infants are guided toward phonemic representations, which constitute an efficient encoding of that signal. Meanwhile, classical theories of language acquisition such as Newport (1990) and Pinker (1991) invoke constraints on long-term memory, arguing that linguistic regularities constitute compressed descriptions of the learner's input and that their discovery reduces the amount of information that must by idiosyncratically stored. Artificial language learning patterns in humans (Kersten and Earles, 2001) and recent computational modeling of the speech domain (e.g. Lee and Glass, 2012; Lee et al., 2015; Elsner and Shain, 2017; Kamper et al., 2017a; Shain and Elsner, 2019) have supported a contribution from memory constraints to language learning. This position also aligns with an extensive computational neuroscience literature on sparse coding, which holds that biological neurons are tuned for memory-efficient representations of recent stimuli (Attneave, 1954; Field, 1996, 2004; Sheridan et al., 2017) .",

For example, Rohde and Plaut (1999) fail to replicate findings from Elman (1993) in favor of Newport (1990) . In addition, Perfors (2012) fails to find evidence that memory bottlenecks encourage discovery of underlying linguistic regularities in adults and argues that such limitations only support language learning in concert with strong inductive priors. Furthermore, evidence suggests that mental representations during language processing preserve acoustic details over and above symbolic codes (Andruski et al., 1994; McMurray et al., 2002) . Related work has called into question both the memory efficiency of human mental representations and the severity of long-term memory limits. For example, experimental evidence indicates that human mental representations contain redundant information, both of language (Baayen et al., 1997) and of other constructs such as logical relations (Piantadosi et al., 2016) . In addition, recent estimates of mental storage requirements indicate that lexical information, especially semantics, already requires vastly more storage than e.g. phonemes and syntax, suggesting little added memory benefit from optimizing the efficiency with which regularities are stored (Mollica and Piantadosi, 2019) . Finally, recent computational evidence linking memory bottlenecks to success in unsupervised speech processing has relied on storage of arbitrarily long acoustic sequences in their full detail in order to compute reconstruction losses Elsner and Shain, 2017) . This design is inconsistent with known constraints on the storage duration (< 1s) of unanalyzed acoustic traces in human working memory (Baddeley and Hitch, 1974; Cowan, 1984) . It is thus not yet clear (1) how strongly memory pressures constrain mental representations of speech or (2) how much they encourage language learning.",

It has also been proposed that language learning may be driven by optimizing prediction of future input (Rohde and Plaut, 1999; Johnson et al., 2013; Phillips and Ehrenhofer, 2015; Apfelbaum and McMurray, 2017) . This proposal aligns with an extensive neuroscience literature arguing that predictive coding for future inputs is a \"canonical computation\" of the human brain (Keller and Mrsic-Flogel, 2018) and may better characterize the tuning of biological neurons than sparse coding (Singer et al., 2018) , possibly because prediction affords advantages in critical tasks (Nijhawan, 1994) and may help organisms filter noise from the perceptual signal by focusing attention on features relevant to prediction (Bialek et al., 2001) . Additional support for a role of prediction in language learning comes from the success of incremental language models in natural language processing, which optimize prediction of future words (Ney et al., 1994; Heafield et al., 2013; Jozefowicz et al., 2016; Radford et al., 2019) . Language models support dramatic performance improvements in language processing tasks (Radford et al., 2019) and have been shown to both (1) acquire linguistic abstractions without direct supervision (Linzen et al., 2016) and 2covary with human language comprehension measures (Frank and Bod, 2011; Goodkind and Bicknell, 2018; van Schijndel and Linzen, 2018) . Finally, experimental evidence indicates that infants chunk the speech stream at points of low transition probability, suggesting that predictive signals are exploited to learn word-like units (Saffran et al., 1996) .",

In addition, influential theories of biological neural information processing argue that biological neural circuits integrate information at multiple hierarchically-organized timescales (Kiebel et al., 2008; Hasson et al., 2015; Norman-Haignere et al., 2020) . Further neuroscientific evidence indicates that segmentation of the time dimension plays a critical role in human cognition, both in domain-general event processing (Zacks et al., 2001; Jensen, 2006 , inter alia) and in speech processing specifically (Sanders and Neville, 2003; Cunillera et al., 2006 Cunillera et al., , 2009 Kooijman et al., 2013;  Lee and Cho, 2016, inter alia). Segmentation or \"chunking\" also plays a central role in several theories of language comprehension (Sanford and Sturt, 2002; Hale, 2006; Frank and Christiansen, 2018) and learning (Monaghan and Christiansen, 2010; McCauley and Christiansen, 2019) . Our model incorporates these notions architecturally, with segment boundaries implemented by \"detector neurons\" that govern information flow between neural populations at larger and smaller timescales (Masquelier, 2018) .",

Such theories predict the existence of abstractions over abstractions, latent structures that describe the distribution of other latent structures. This idea accords with recent theories of generalized Bayesian learning in biological agents, in which neural populations are thought to model the activity of other neural populations within their Markov blanket (Friston, 2010) . The notion of learning through modeling other elements of the agent's own mental state has been exploited in symbolic computational models of language acquisition (Lee and Glass, 2012; Lee et al., 2015) , but not in the context of artificial neural zero-resource speech models, which have so far derived their objective exclusively from the data (Kamper et al., 2017a; Elsner and Shain, 2017) .

Much of this work concerns the discovery of word-like units, while our analyses focus on learning at the phoneme level (see section 4.3). A symbolic Bayesian framework for joint unsupervised phoneme segmentation and clustering is proposed by Lee and Glass (2012) and extended by Lee et al. (2015) . Their system infers a Dirichlet process hidden Markov model to learn a symbolic sequential encoding of the speech stream. A disadvantage of this approach for the present research question is that the categorically distributed phone labels lack any notion of featural relatedness, contrary to widely held assumptions about natural language phonology (Clements, 1985) . In addition, the learning signal derives from a next-frame prediction objective, making it difficult to use the model to factorially manipulate memory and prediction pressures. Another recent framework for unsupervised phone segmentation identifies boundaries at points of high surprisal in a frame-level language model (Michel et al., 2017) . This approach does not generate segment encodings and cannot straightforwardly be used to test claims about the role of memory in language learning.",

However, unlike previous approaches, our model decodes incrementally and hierarchically, with each layer decoding its inputs at their own timescale over a short window backward into the past and/or forward into the future. The model is thus required not only to describe the input signal (speech), but also its own sequence of latent representations (e.g. phones, words, etc.), much as people are implicitly thought to do in prior symbolic work on unsupervised language learning (Goldwater et al., 2009; Lee et al., 2015 ). Our encoder model closely follows Chung et al. (2017) , and thus the primary technical contribution of this work lies in the cascaded incremental decoder and the layerwise incremental objective described below, both of which are designed to encourage repurposable segment representations based on locally available information. Although encodings are ultimately the quantity of interest in unsupervised encoder-decoder models, prior work has shown that decoder design can be a major determinant of acquired representations (McCoy et al., 2018 (McCoy et al., , 2020 . The overall design is schematized in Figure 1 . Code is available at https://github.com/coryshain/dnnseg.",

The encoder consists of multiple LSTM layers linked by discrete boundary neurons that govern memory retention and information flow between layers. When a boundary neuron fires in layer l, it terminates a segment. Layer l then ejects its hidden state representation to layer l + 1, receives top-down input from the hidden state of layer l + 1, and resets its cell state (incremental memory) in order to process the next segment. The hidden state at a boundary thus constitutes a label for the segment terminating at that boundary, which is used to summarize the content of the segment when communicating with other layers. When the boundary neuron at layer l does not fire, layer l + 1 is inert and simply copies its representation forward. As a result, higher layers track information at longer timescales than lower layers, and the segmentation behavior at l determines the input timescale at l + 1. Each layer proceeds by segmenting and labeling its input signal at a timescale learned from data, resulting in a hierarchical sequence of labeled segments. As argued in Chung et al. (2017) , this design enforces a trade-off between recurrent information (which is erased by segmentation) and top-down information (which is made available by segmentation). 1 Although the linguistic quality of discovered HM-LSTM segments is not systematically examined in the original proposal (Chung et al., 2017) and recent analysis has called it into question (K\u00e1d\u00e1r et al., 2018) , our results indicate that HM-LSTMs can discover segmental structure from speech, at least at the phonemic level.",

In addition, the predicted sequence from the layer above serves as attention values to inform decoding at the current layer, at a timescale determined by the segmentation patterns of the current layer and the layer below. The internal behavior of the decoder is thus tightly coupled with the segmental behavior of the encoder, providing direct feedback into the encoder decisions.

For this reason, we stop the gradients into decoding targets and backpropagate only into the decoder predictions.

The English data come from the Buckeye Corpus (Pitt et al., 2005) and contain 4h59m05s of spontaneous speech from 12 speakers. For English, we additionally include the official development set in training, which contains 1h39m45s of spontaneous speech from 2 speakers, also from the Buckeye Corpus. English development set performance was used for model development and tuning, but the development set is not included in the evaluations presented here. Xitsonga lacks a development set, so designs selected on the English development set are applied directly to Xitsonga for evaluation. Before fitting, we convert the source audio files into a cochleagram-based spectral representation that approximates the signal generated by the human auditory system (McDermott and Simoncelli, 2011). 4",

To this end, our principal manipulations are the backward (B \u2208 {0, 5, 25, 50}) and forward (F \u2208 {0, 1, 5, 10}) window lengths used by the decoder, which respectively impose a pressure to efficiently remember and accurately predict. Note that the condition B = 0, F = 0 (no reconstruction or prediction) is not well defined because the objective is 0 at any parameterization and thus has no gradient, and we therefore exclude it from consideration in these results. In addition, we manipulate the number of encoder layers (L \u2208 {2, 3, 4}). This is because it is unclear a priori which layers of the encoder are expected to correspond to quantities of interest like phonemes or words, since the representations are unsupervised and the model could additionally or instead discover e.g. subphonemic, morphemic, phrasal, intonational, and other kinds of structures. Although detection of these and other levels of linguistic representation is of interest and is the target of future work, the annotations provided by the Zerospeech 2015 data support phoneme-level and word-level analyses only, and we concentrate our evaluation there. Varying the number of layers allows us to investigate which layers emergently discover more phoneme-like units, and under what conditions.",

                "text": "Because our model generates a segmental encoding of the speech signal, we apply two classes of evaluation in this study: phoneme segmentation and phoneme-level probing classification. The segmentation evaluation measures the degree of correspondence between the model-generated segment boundaries and expert-annotated phoneme boundaries, using a boundary F-measure which assigns a true positive for up to one predicted boundary that falls within some tolerance of each gold boundary, false positives for all other predicted boundaries, and false negatives for all gold boundaries that lack a predicted boundary within the tolerance. Following Lee and Glass (2012), we use a tolerance of 20ms. The classification evaluation measures the amount of signal in model-generated encodings as to (1) the true identity of the phoneme being encoded and (2) the cluster of phonological features associated with that phoneme (Hayes, 2011) . Following e.g. Shain and Elsner (2019) and Chrupa\u0142a et al. (2020) , we do so using probing classifiers. In particular, for each layer of each model's encoder, we fit linear classifiers to (1) the phoneme labels and (2) the phonological feature labels associated with the gold phoneme segment corresponding to each phone boundary. We extract the gold and predicted phoneme encodings at the human-annotated phoneme boundaries, regardless of whether the model segmented at that location. This supports direct comparison of metrics across models, since the set of evaluated segments is held constant. Phonological features are extracted at the same timepoints, following the procedure described in Shain and Elsner (2019) . 5 Although our model is designed to support joint discovery of multiple layers of representation, we find empirically that no model appreciably improves at any layer in word boundary F-score over a baseline that segments only at the ends of voice activity regions, and qualitative inspection does not indicate systematic correspondence to an unannotated level of representation such as syllables, morphemes, or intonational units. Despite differences in segmentation rate, and thereby in word boundary precision-recall trade-off, models generally converge on similar (low) word boundary F-scores, and thus our manipulations are not informative about word learning. Probe-based classification metrics are not well suited to word-level evaluation due to the size of the vocabulary. Though human speech processing involves units between the phoneme and word level, detailed analysis of such units is difficult due to the lack of annotation in the corpus. We believe poor word discovery at higher layers may be due in part to the fact that noninitial layers have both a non-stationary objective (the evolving representations of the layer below) and slower learning dynamics, perhaps making it difficult for these layers to \"catch up\" with moving targets (Ioffe and Szegedy, 2015) . We leave exploration of possible remedies to future research and focus here only on the phoneme level.",

For English, baseline X is the architecturally matched Xitsonga-trained model. 7 We do not evaluate directly against a previous state of the art because no state of the art exists for unsupervised phoneme segmentation and classification in the Zerospeech 2015 data. A previous model that performed the same task (Lee and Glass, 2012) achieved an average boundary F-score of 76.1 on a different dataset that used a different boundary annotation standard (automatic forced alignment instead of human annotation). To our knowledge, the dataset is no longer publicly available. A recent segmentation-only model (Michel et al., 2017) achieved a boundary F of 75 on the TIMIT dataset (Fisher et al., 1986) . However, because TIMIT is restricted to 10 unique utterances of English, we believe Zerospeech 2015, which contains more linguistically diverse speech from two unrelated languages, is a better dataset for investigating language acquisition patterns. F = 75). The overall segmentation performance in Xitsonga is considerably worse than that of English, consistent with prior evidence that word segmentation in the Zerospeech 2015 Xitsonga partition is harder than English (e.g. Kamper et al., 2017a) . By contrast, classification metrics in Xitsonga are better than in English, which is again consistent with prior findings of stronger unsupervised classification performance in Xitsonga (Shain and Elsner, 2019) . The difference in relative performance between segmentation and classification in the two languages could be due in part to differences in register: the English data is spontaneously produced, while the Xitsonga data is read speech. Longer average phoneme duration (100ms vs 70ms) and cleaner articulations in Xitsonga could plausibly give rise to this asymmetry, and further investigation is left to future work. The model substantially outperforms the untrained baseline (U) on all metrics and outperforms the cross-language baseline (X) on all metrics but boundary F in Xitsonga, which could be due in part to the larger size of the English-language training set. Results therefore indicate that the reconstruction and prediction objectives have contributed to unsupervised discovery of phonemic patterns in both languages.",

A similar peak emerges in the feature classification results for English, along with a local feature classification peak in Xitsonga for L > 2. A 250ms auditory memory window thus supports both phoneme segmentation and classification in our models, with additional benefits from predicting over short intervals (Singer et al., 2018) . For feature classification, the primary determinant of performance across languages is the prediction objective, with performance generally increasing up to F = 5. There is also an effect of encoder depth in these results, such that encoders with more layers (L > 2) tend to perform better across metrics, despite the fact that all metrics reflect performance at the first layer. This result supports a contribution of multiscale modeling, even if the segmentation behavior at higher layers does not clearly correspond to a theory-driven level of representation (see section 4.3). absence of these characteristics. Memory and prediction therefore modulate not only absolute performance, but also the utility of language experience. Figure 4 reports performance differences by metric against baseline X (cross-language). English segmentation is substantially helped by experience with (i.e. training on) English, especially under strong memory pressures. However, Xitsonga segmentation is generally worse for the Xitsongatrained model than the English-trained one. This might be due to the fact that the English training set is larger, and/or to low overall levels of segmentation performance in Xitsonga. While we leave further investigation of this exception to future work, the classification metrics still show a clear benefit of in-domain training in both languages, but only in the presence of prediction pressures.",

                "text": "The baseline X results bear on the degree to which speech processing patterns can plausibly be innately specified. Although the set of phonological categories and features are classically regarded as universal (Chomsky and Halle, 1968; Clements, 1985) , it is well known that the \"same\" phonological abstraction (e.g. voicing) can be phonetically cached out in different ways depending on the language (e.g. Gordon and Ladefoged, 2001; Gordon et al., 2002) . Our results suggest that, at least between Xitsonga and English, this variation is both (1) constrained enough to permit recognition of non-trivial patterns from speech in other languages on the basis of general, possibly innate processing biases, and (2) substantial enough to give rise to a benefit of direct experience with the target language, even for language-general constructs like phoneme categories and phonological features. We use linear regression on the combined metrics to quantitatively evaluate the contribution of both memory and prediction pressures to phoneme acquisition. Results show significant positive contributions to acquisition from memory pressures (p = 0.006), prediction pressures (p < 0.001), and multiscale encoding (p < 0.001). 8 The boundary precision/recall trade-off illuminates the mechanisms by which memory and prediction pressures affect learning ( Figure 5 ). Without memory pressures (B = 0), segmentation rates are high, resulting in high recall and low precision. Introducing memory pressures (B > 0) slows the segmentation rate, resulting in a more balanced P/R trade-off. Without prediction pressures (F = 0), segmentation rates are generally low, resulting in higher precision and lower recall. Introducing prediction pressures (F > 0) increases the segmentation rate, again resulting in a more balanced trade-off. To understand this pattern, recall that a boundary in our model represents both a cost 8 See Appendix G for details. (flushing the memory cell) and a benefit (injecting top-down feedback). The cost of forgetting is plausibly greater for reconstruction than prediction, since only the current layer has had direct access to the sequence of reconstruction targets. By contrast, the benefit of top-down feedback is plausibly greater for prediction than reconstruction, since the prediction can condition on contextual representations at multiple timescales. In our segmental model of speech processing, the objectives therefore induce countervailing biases that boost signal for phonological constructs, supporting their joint influence on phoneme acquisition from speech.",

The hidden state h e(l) t serves as a label at layer l and timestep t. Information flow between these layers is governed by a discrete boundary neuron z (l) t \u2208 {0, 1} at each layer. Let t (l) be the location of the most recent segment boundary preceding time t in layer l:Let f f(l) (a, b) be a filter function dropping labels of l at non-boundaries between timepoints a and b:t at layer l and timestep t is defined as:In other words, the segment St consists of the sequence of segment labels from layer l \u2212 1 at boundaries from l \u2212 1 that intervene since the last segment boundary at l.The bottom-up, recurrent, and top-down inputs are respectively linearly transformed into vectors in s b(l) , s r(l) , s t(l) \u2208 R 4D l +1 using weight matrices W j i mapping from layer i to layer j, and masked using the boundary decisions z:where h e(l) t records the label at the preceding segment boundary h e(l)t is the number of timesteps since the preceding segment boundary at l. We pass this additional information into the recurrent connection to relieve pressure on the cell state to encode it. These vectors are summed together with a bias b (l) to create a vector of preactivations s (l) , normalized by the boundary decisions so that the weights on active connections sum to 1:In this way, information is only passed upward and downward at boundaries, and the boundaries thus govern information flow between adjacent layers. The vector sand deterministically during evaluation:We additionally require that z (0) t = 1 (the input always \"segments\") and z (L) t = 0 (the top layer never segments). To enforce hierarchical segmentation behavior, we mask the boundaries by the boundaries at the layer below:Gradients through these discrete decisions are approximated using straight-through estimation (Hinton, 2012; Bengio et al., 2013; Courbariaux et al., 2016; Chung et al., 2017; Shain and Elsner, 2019; Eloff et al., 2019) .The forget gates ft , and cell proposal g e(l) t are computed as follows:The cell state c e(l) t is a weighted sum of three terms: a flush operation c f(l) t that erases the cell memory, a standard LSTM update c u (l) , and a copy operation c c(l) that copies the preceding cell state forward:These terms are weighted by the boundary decision such that a flush occurs when the preceding timestep finds a boundary, an update otherwise occurs when the layer below finds a boundary, and a copy occurs when neither layer finds a boundary:The hidden state h e(l) t is computed as:The previous segment encoding his updated following a boundary and copied forward otherwise:, and copied forward otherwise:Chung et al. 2017Although our encoder model closely follows the definition in Chung et al.

Although this differs from the standard automatic speech recognition pipeline based on Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (Mermelstein, 1976) , it is motivated for our study because the model is unsupervised. Since we wish to test theories about cognition by extracting features from the acoustic stream without supervision, it is critical not only that the speech representation contain features that support identification of linguistic units, but that the representation emphasize those features in a plausibly similar manner to that of the human auditory system. Cochleagrams support this goal by incorporating more recent insights about human auditory perception (Mc-Dermott and Simoncelli, 2011) . Our implementation uses the pycochleagram library https: //github.com/mcdermottLab/pycochleagram.We L2 normalize the cochleagrams in order to encourage the decoder to focus on the spectral power envelope rather than absolute variation in loudness, since the former plausibly contains more linguistic signal. This procedure is supported by evidence of loudness constancy in human auditory perception, suggesting that similar kinds of normalization may take place in the brain (Zahorik and Wightman, 2001) . We additionally z-transform the normalized cochleagrams over time within each audio file, since this proved beneficial during model development.The source audio files contain many non-speech regions that are not of direct relevance for this study. We use the voice activity detection (VAD) intervals provided with the Zerospeech 2015 challenge data to remove these regions as a preprocess, and we force boundaries at the ends of VAD intervals. This greatly speeds training by removing irrelevant data, and it aligns with neuroscientific evidence of a prelinguistic capacity to detect human voices (Belin et al., 2000; Fecteau et al., 2005; Blasi et al., 2011; Pernet et al., 2015) .",

To do so, we combine raw boundary, phoneme classification, and feature classification metrics, along with deltas in these metrics over baselines U and X, into a single vector of performance statistics, each of which measures one aspect of the contribution of these dimensions to phoneme learning in our unsupervised models. To improve normality of performance metrics which are bounded on the interval [0, 1], as well as comparability of performance across metrics, we first (1) cast the metrics onto the interval [\u22121, 1], (2) apply Fisher's Z transformation (i.e. arctanh), and (3) Z-score the transformed vectors within each metric type. We use binary coding for our predictors of interest: presence/absence of memory pressures (B > 0), presence/absence of prediction pressures (F > 0), and presence/absence of multiscale segmental encoding (L > 2). We also include categorical controls for comparison type (full, full -baseline U, full -baseline X) and metric type (boundary, phoneme, feature). Results, shown in Table A1 , support a contribution of all three critical variables to phoneme acquisition.",
