Abstract: The Uniform Information Density (UID) hypothesis proposes that speakers communicate by transmitting information close to a constant rate. When choosing between two syntactic variants, it claims that speakers prefer the variant distributing information most evenly,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tit.2020.3040255
Abstract: Resistive memories store information in a crossbar arrangement of two-terminal devices that can be programmed to patterns of high or low resistance. While extremely compact, this technology suffers from the “sneak-path” problem: certain information patterns… read more here.

DOI: 10.1515/cllt-2023-0028
Abstract: Abstract Nominal compounds are a structure commonly used in scientific texts. Despite their commonality, very little is known about how they are distributed in scientific articles. Based on the Uniform Information Density hypothesis, which states… read more here.
