Abstract: Children learn natural languages by hearing utterances
while interacting with their physical environment. We
investigate one aspect of language acquisition by similarly
situated, embodied artificial agents - using information
about syntax to learn linguistically relevant
semantic features. The agent is assumed to have no
innate knowledge of syntax, and instead leverages the
weak information about syntax available in word cooccurrences.
Similarity of context (i.e. the surrounding
words) is used... (Update)

...mappings. A smaller amount of work in AI has also addressed the grounded acquisition of grammar (e.g. Steels 1997, Oates, Eyler Walker, and Cohen 1999); this is the problem we address in this paper. The main defining characteristic of our work is that we explicitly focus...
