Combined Distributional and Logical Semantics
We introduce a new approach to semantics which combines the benefits of distributional and formal logical semantics. Distributional models have been successful in modelling the meanings of content words, but logical semantics is necessary to adequately represent many function words. We follow formal semantics in mapping language to logical representations, but differ in that the relational cons...
متن کاملTowards a Formal Distributional Semantics: Simulating Logical Calculi with Tensors
The development of compositional distributional models of semantics reconciling the empirical aspects of distributional semantics with the compositional aspects of formal semantics is a popular topic in the contemporary literature. This paper seeks to bring this reconciliation one step further by showing how the mathematical constructs commonly used in compositional distributional models, such ...
متن کاملMultimodal Distributional Semantics
Distributional semantic models derive computational representations of word meaning from the patterns of co-occurrence of words in text. Such models have been a success story of computational linguistics, being able to provide reliable estimates of semantic relatedness for the many semantic tasks requiring them. However, distributional models extract meaning information exclusively from text, w...
متن کاملFunctional Distributional Semantics
Vector space models have become popular in distributional semantics, despite the challenges they face in capturing various semantic phenomena. We propose a novel probabilistic framework which draws on both formal semantics and recent advances in machine learning. In particular, we separate predicates from the entities they refer to, allowing us to perform Bayesian inference based on logical for...
متن کاملDistributional Semantics and the Lexicon
The lexicons used in computational linguistics systems contain morphological, syntactic, and occasionally also some semantic information (such as definitions, pointers to an ontology, verb frame filler preferences, etc.). But the human cognitive lexicon contains a great deal more, crucially, expectations about how a word tends to combine with others: not just general information-extraction-like...
