What predic ts this variability\, and what is consistent across children and across le arners of different languages? In this talk\, I’ll describe our efforts to create predictive models of early language learning as a way of formalizi ng hypotheses in this space. This goal has led us to create open data reso urces like Wordbank\, childes-db\, and Peekbank that capture data from ten s of thousands of children learning dozens of different languages.\n\n \n \nSeminar CAMBAM Seminar Series\n Zoom -  Please contact coordinator.qls [a t] mcgill.ca\n DTSTART:20220920T160000Z DTEND:20220920T170000Z SUMMARY:Michael Frank\, Stanford URL:/mathstat/channels/event/michael-frank-stanford-34 2049 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
