Abstract:Communication, often grounded in shared expectations, faces challenges without common linguistic backgrounds. Our study explores how people instinctively turn to the fundamental principles of the physical world to overcome communication barriers.

We developed a new computational model built from the principle of expectancy violations o… Show more
