Distinct fronto-temporal substrates of distributional and taxonomic similarity among words: evidence from RSA of BOLD signals

Distinct fronto-temporal substrates of distributional and taxonomic similarity among words: evidence from RSA of BOLD signals

A class of semantic theories defines concepts in terms of statistical distributions of lexical items, basing meaning on vectors of word co-occurrence frequencies. A different approach emphasizes abstract hierarchical taxonomic relationships among concepts. However, the functional relevance of these...
