The study explores how neural agents develop dependency length minimization (DLM) in artificial languages using a recurrent neural network framework. By manipulating processing constraints such as listening noise, speaker capacity, and incremental sentence processing, the researchers find that DLM emerges only under incremental processing pressure, while other factors produce varied word‑order preferences. These results suggest that human cognitive processing limits may influence the emergence of DLM in language.
