A Hybrid Approach Robust Text Analysis - Ballim, Coray, Pallotta (Correct)
....how much a semantic representation can be considered meaningful . However much efforts has been spent in computing sentence meaning in a compositional way, that is composing elementary word meanings into larger structures (e.g. lambdaterms) following suitable strategies (see [Mon73, Fre92, GM89, DWP81] An alternative approach to compositional semantics that uses linear logic as the underlying logical framework is proposed in [DLPS97] Usually there is an intermediate structure: the syntactic structure. Whether this intermediate structure is really sufficient for the meaning construction is ....

....between these two kinds of analyses by considering an example of determining pronoun reference. 2. Higher Order Logic The higher order logic we study here, called T, can be thought of as being a subsystem of either Church s Simple Theory of Types [5] or of Montague s intensional logic IL [6] Unlike Church s or Montague s logics, T is very weak because it assumes no axioms regarding extensionality, definite descriptions, infinity, choice, or possible worlds. T encompasses only the most primitive logical notions, and generalizes first order logic by introducing stronger notions of ....

....individual word classes. This gives rise to the discussions in this chapter. 6.1. 1 Semantic composition based on expressions The Montague style tradition of implementing semantic composition uses expressions and con version (fi reduction, function application) as its basic ingredients, cf. [10]. The variable bound by a operator marks the position of a missing substructure in a given expression. Typically, the semantic representations which are associated with words in the lexicon are such partial expressions. a : det : P: Q: 9z( P z) Qz) woman : n : x: woman(x) 6.1) 74 The ....

A Model for Multimodal Representation and Inference - Pineda, Garza (1998) (Correct)
....functions from basic and composite expressions of the source modality into expressions of the object modality. This view of multimodal representation and reasoning has been developed in [13] 17] 9] 18] and [19] and it follows closely the spirit of Montague s general semiotic programme [5]. The theory is targeted to define natural language and graphical interactive computer systems and, as a consequence, the model is focused in these two modalities. However, the system is also used to express conceptual information in a logical fashion and, depending on the application, the circle ....

An Evaluation of Prolog as a Tool for Natural Language Analysis - White (1990) (Correct)
....meaning of the sentence John walks is derived by applying the meaning of the verb phrase x(W alks x) to the meaning of the noun phrase John which when explicitly fi reduced yields (W alks John) This derivation, however, is linguistically simple minded. In the classical Montagovian treatment ([David R. Dowty, 1981]) which is consistent with the compositional semantics of quantified noun phrases, the meaning of the noun phrase is type raised to p(pJohn) which can then be applied to the meaning of the verb phrase yielding the same interpretation after two fi reductions. This operation can be directly ....
