In this video, I cover a lecture from my Human Language. I go over the idea of exploring larger language models by doing an analysis to predict word choice in causative constructions. To create our models, we use logistic regression to predict do versus let combinations in Dutch with verb choice, regional differences, and causative semanticity. We also discuss some visualization techniques for interactions, as well as screening for assumptions of logistic regression.
