Network Growth Modeling to Capture Individual Lexical Learning

Figure 6

We consider performance of the best performing network growth models when sorted by average age of acquisition (AoA) (a) the child’s age (b), CDI percentile (c), and vocabulary size (d). The lines indicate a locally weighted smoothing of the difference between each model’s individual CDI baseline and the network model fit. Positive values indicate systematic improvement over the baseline CDI model for the population of snapshots in our test data. The points are individual differences that are used to compute the smoothed line.
