Scaling laws for nonlinear dynamical models of articulatory control
Dynamical theories of speech use computational models of articulatory control to generate quantitative predictions and advance understanding of speech dynamics. The addition of a nonlinear restoring force to task dynamic models is a significant improvement over linear models, but nonlinearity introduces challenges with parameterization and interpretability. We illustrate these problems through numerical simulations and introduce solutions in the form of scaling laws. We apply the scaling laws to a cubic model and show how they facilitate interpretable simulations of articulatory dynamics, and can be theoretically interpreted as imposing physical and cognitive constraints on models of speech movement dynamics.

Discovering dynamical laws for speech gestures
A fundamental challenge in the cognitive sciences is discovering the dynamics that govern behaviour. Take the example of spoken language, which is characterised by a highly variable and complex set of physical movements …

Controlling nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems involves substantial challenges when the dynamics contain unknown and unstructured nonlinear state-dependent terms. For such complex systems, deep neural networks can se…
Flow map learning in nonlinear vector autoregressive models: influence of the feature-library structure on the training error
Time series forecasting often requires learning nonlinear and time-delayed dependencies. A paradigmatic class of forecasting models are nonlinear vector autoregressive processes (NVAR), also known as next-generation rese…
Time Series ForecastingNonlinear second-order dynamics describe labial constriction trajectories across languages and contexts
We investigate the dynamics of labial constriction trajectories during the production of /b/ and /m/ in English and Mandarin. We find that, across languages and contexts, the ratio of instantaneous displacement to instan…
A Solvable Model of Neural Scaling Laws
Large language models with a huge number of parameters, when trained on near internet-sized number of tokens, have been empirically shown to obey neural scaling laws: specifically, their performance behaves predictably a…
