| "text": "Computational models of word learning typically approximate the perceptual context that learners are exposed to through artificial proxies, e.g., representing a visual scene via a collection of symbols such as cat and dog, signaling the presence of a cat, a dog, etc. (Yu and Ballard, 2007; Fazly et al., 2010 , inter alia). 1 While large amounts of data can be generated in this way, they will not display the complexity and richness of the signal found in the natural environment a child is exposed to. We take a step towards a more realistic setup by introducing a model that operates on naturalistic images of the objects present in a communicative episode. Inspired by recent computational models of meaning (Bruni et al., 2014; Kiros et al., 2014; Silberer and Lapata, 2014) , that integrate distributed linguistic and visual information, we build upon the Multimodal Skip-Gram (MSG) model of Lazaridou et al. (2015) . and enhance it to handle cross-referential uncertainty. Moreover, we extend the cues commonly used in multimodal learning (e.g., objects in the environment) to include social cues (e.g., eyegaze, gestures, body posture, etc.) that reflect speakers' intentions and generally contribute to the unfolding of the communicative situation (Stivers and Sidnell, 2005) . As a first step towards developing full-fleged learning systems that leverage all signals available within a communicative setup, in our extended model we incorporate information regarding the objects that caregivers are holding.", |

We consider instead a more realistic scenario where multiple words in an utterance co-occur with multiple objects in the corresponding scene.

| "text": "3 The Illustrated Frank et al. Corpus Frank et al. (2007) present a Bayesian crosssituational learning model for simulating early word learning in first language acquisition. The model is tested on a portion of the Rollins section of the CHILDES Database (MacWhinney, 2000) consisting of two transcribed video files (me03 and di06), of approximately 10 minutes each, where a mother and a pre-verbal infant play with a set of toys. By inspecting the video recordings, the authors manually annotated each utterance in the transcripts with a list of object labels (e.g., ring, hat, cow) corresponding to all midsize objects judged to be visible to the infant while the utterance took place, as well as various social cues. The dataset includes a gold-standard lexicon consisting of 36 words paired with 17 object labels (e.g., hat=hat, pig=pig, piggie=pig). 2 Aiming at creating a more realistic version of the original dataset, akin to simulating a real visual scene, we replaced symbolic object labels with actual visual representations of objects. To construct such visual representations, we sample for each object 100 images from the respective ImageNet (Deng et al., 2009) entry, and from each image we extract a 4096-dimensional visual vector using the Caffe toolkit (Jia et al., 2014) , together with the pretrained convolutional neural network of Krizhevsky et al. (2012) . 3 These vectors are finally averaged to obtain a single visual representation of each object. Concerning social cues, since infants rarely follow the caregivers' eye gaze but rather attend to objects held by them (Yu and Smith, 2013) , we include in our corpus only information on whether the caregiver is holding any of the objects present in the scene. Note however that this signal, while informative, can also be ambiguous or even misleading with respect to the actual referents of a statement. Several aspects make IFC a challenging dataset. Firstly, we are dealing with language produced in an interactive setting rather than written discourse. For example, compare the first sentence in the Wikipedia entry for hat (\"A hat is a head covering\") to the third utterance in Figure 1 , corresponding to the first occurrence of hat in our corpus. Secondly, there is a large amount of referential uncertainty, with up to 7 objects present per utterance (2 on average) and with only 33% of utterances explicitly including a word directly associated with a possible referent (i.e., not taking into account pronouns). For instance, the first, second and last utterances in Figure 1 do not explicitly mention any of the objects present in the scene. This uncertainty also extends to social cues: only in 23% of utterances does the mother explicitly name an object that she is holding in her hands. Finally, models must induce wordobject associations from minimal exposure to input rather than from large amounts of training data. Indeed, the IFC is extremely small by any standards: 624 utterances making up 2,533 words in total, with 8/37 test words occurring only once. ", |

| "text": "We follow the evaluation protocol of Frank et al. (2007) and Kievit-Kylar et al. (2013) . Given 37 test words and the corresponding 17 objects (see Table 2 ), all found in the corpus, we rank the objects with respect to each word. A mean Best-F score is then derived by computing, for each word, the top F score across the precision-recall curve, and averaging it across the words. MSG rankings are obtained by directly ordering the visual representations of the objects by cosine similarity to the MSG word vectors. Table 1 reports our results compared to those in earlier studies, all of which did not use actual visual representations of objects but rather arbitrary symbolic IDs. Bayesian CSL is the original Bayesian cross-situational model of Frank et al. (2007) , also including social cues (not limited, like us, to mother's touch). BEAGLE is the best semantic-space result across a range of distributional models and word-object matching methods from Kievit-Kylar et al. (2013) . Their distributional models were trained in a batch mode, and by treating object IDs as words so that standard word-vector-based similarity methods could be used to rank objects with respect to words. Plain MSG is outperforming nearly all earlier approaches by a large margin. The only method bettering it is the BEAGLE+PMI combination of Kievit-Kylar et al. (PMI measures direct co-occurrence of test words and object IDs). The latter was obtained through a grid search of all possible model combinations performed directly on the test set, and relied on a weight parameter optimized on the corpus by assuming access to gold annotation.", |

In other words, it could be that MSG has simply learned to treat, say, the lamb visual vector as an arbitrary signature, functioning as a semantically opaque ID for the relevant object, without exploiting the visual resemblance between lamb and sheep. In this case, we should obtain similar performance when arbitrarily shuffling the visual vectors across object types (e.g., consistently replacing each occurrence of the lamb visual vector with, say, the hand visual vector). The lower results obtained in this control condition (ASMSG+shuffled visual vector) confirm that our performance boost is largely due to exploitation of genuine visual information.", |

The dramatic quality drop in the ASMSG+randomized sentences condition, where AttentiveSocialMSG was trained on IFC after randomizing sentence order, confirms the coherent situation flow is crucial to our good performance. Minimal exposure. Given the small size of the input corpus, good performance on the word-object association already counts as indirect evidence that MSG, like children, can learn from small amounts of data. In Table 2 we take a more specific look at this challenge by reporting AttentiveSocialMSG performance on the task of ranking object visual representations for test words that occurred only once in IFC, considering both the standard evaluation set and a much larger confusion set including visual vectors for 5.1K distinct objects (those of Lazaridou et al. (2015) ). Remarkably, in all but one case, the model associates the test word to the right object from the small set, and to either the right object or another relevant visual concept (e.g., a ranch for moocows) when the extended set is considered. The exception is kitty, and even for this word the model ranks the correct object as second in the smaller set, and well above chance for the larger one. Our approach, just like humans (Trueswell et al., 2013) , can often get a word meaning right based on a single exposure to it.", |

Thus, once the model is trained on IFC, we can test its generalization capabilities to associate known words with new object instances that belong to the right category. We focus on 19 words in our test set corresponding to objects that were normed for visual similarity to other objects by Silberer and Lapata (2014) . Each test word was paired with 40 ImageNet pictures evenly divided between images of the gold object (not used in IFC), of a highly visually similar object, of a mildly visually similar object and of a dissimilar one (for duck: duck, chicken, finch and garage, respectively). The pictures were represented by vectors obtained with the same method outlined in Section 3, and were ranked by similarity to a test word AttentiveSocialMSG representation. Average Precision@10 for retrieving gold object instances is at 62% (chance: 25%). In the majority of cases the top-10 intruders are instances of the most visually related concepts (60% of intruders, vs. 33% expected by chance). For example, the model retrieves pictures of sheep for the word lamb, or bulls for cow. Intriguingly, this points to classic overextension errors that are commonly reported in child language acquisition (Rescorla, 1980) .", |

For example, in comparison to Yu (2005) 's model, our approach (1) induces distributed representations for words, based on linguistic and visual context, and (2) operates entirely on distributed representations through similarity measures without positing a categorical level on which to learn wordsymbol/category-symbol associations. This leads to rich multimodal conceptual representations of words in terms of distributed multimodal features, while in Yu's approach words are simply distributions over categories. It is therefore not clear how Yu's approach could capture phenomena such as predicting appearance from a verbal description or representing abstract words-all tasks that our model is at least in principle well-suited for.

However, unlike Kennington and Schlangen, who explicitly train an object recognizer associated with each word of interest, with at least 65 labeled positive training examples per word, our model does not have any comparable form of supervision and our data exhibits much lower frequencies of object and word (co-)occurrence. Moreover, reference resolution is only an aspect of what we do: Besides being able to associate a word with a visual extension, our model is simultaneously learning word representations that allow us to deal with a variety of other tasks-for example, as mentioned above, guessing the appearance of the object denoted by a new word from a purely verbal description, grouping concepts into categories by their similarity, or having both abstract and concrete words represented in the same space.", |

We think the most pressing issue to move ahead in this direction is to construct larger corpora recording the linguistic and visual environment in which children acquire language, in line with the efforts of the Human Speechome Project (Roy, 2009; Roy et al., 2015) . Having access to such data will enable us to design agents that acquire semantic knowledge by leveraging all available cues present in multimodal communicative setups, such as learning agents that can automatically predict eye-gaze (Recasens * et al., 2015) and incorporate this knowledge into the semantic learning process.", |
