Research Abstract

This research aims to build multi-agent models which enable us to measure correlation between grammatical development of language and its learning environment by simulating the dynamic process of grammar formulation through communication between language learners. Based on the pre-existing models, some models focusing on synchronicity and diachronicity are proposed. Experimental results showed that languages spoken by the whole community are changed depending on the faculty of language acquisition of agents and its language environment.
