Researchers have proposed a new hypothesis called "collocational bootstrapping" to explain how statistical patterns in language input can aid in learning syntactic dependencies. This mechanism suggests that word co-occurrence regularities can signal syntactic relationships, specifically focusing on how subject-verb agreement might be acquired. Computational simulations using neural networks trained on synthetic data demonstrated that these models could robustly learn subject-verb agreement within a specific range of statistical variability. Analysis of child-directed language revealed that the variability in subject-verb pairings in such input falls within this effective range, supporting the idea that collocational bootstrapping is a viable learning strategy for children.
