Zoom link for my talk: Twenty years of retrieval models

Here is the zoom registration link to my talk at UMass on Sept 25, 21:30 CEST (15:30 UMass time).
Title: Twenty years of retrieval models
Abstract:
After Newell wrote his 1973 article, "You can't play twenty questions with nature and win", several important cognitive architectures emerged for modeling human cognitive processes across a wide range of phenomena. One of these, ACT-R, has played an important role in the study of memory processes in sentence processing. In this talk, I will talk about some important lessons I have learnt over the last 20 years while trying to evaluate ACT-R based computational models of sentence comprehension. In this connection, I will present some new results from a recent set of sentence processing studies on Eastern Armenian.
