Computational approaches to figurative language
concepts that are associated with the same source domain are often related to each other in the way we conceptualise them, but their meanings are not necessarily synonymous or even semantically close. Compare, for example, the target concepts MARRIAGE and POLITICAL REGIME. Although not directly related in semantic space, they are both metaphorically mapped to the source concept of MECHANISM (e....
متن کاملComputational Approaches to Figurative Language
The heading figurative language subsumes multiple phenomena that can be used to perform most linguistic functions including predication, modification, and reference. Figurative language can tap into conceptual and linguistic knowledge (as in the case of idioms, metaphor, and some metonymies) as well as evoke pragmatic factors in interpretation (as in indirect speech acts, humor, irony, or sarca...
متن کاملFigurative Tours and Braids
We start with a rectangular grid of points, and we connect pairs of points to form either a tour (a Hamiltonian cycle) or a braid (a collection of disjoint paths that start in the top row and end on the bottom). In each case, our goal is to design a graph that will closely resemble a grayscale target image when viewed from a distance. From up close, the graph will look like an abstract pattern....
متن کاملColor Sensation in Figurative Painting
The figurative painter accesses very complex levels of knowledge. To produce a painting requires, first, a deep analysis of the image of the reality and, afterwards, the study of the reconstruction of this reality. This is not about a process of copying, but a process of the comprehension of the concepts that appear in the representation. The drawing guides us in the process of the production o...
متن کاملIntersecting Word Vectors to Take Figurative Language to New Heights
This paper proposes a technique to create figurative relationships using Mikolov et al.’s word vectors. Drawing on existing work on figurative language, we start with a pair of words and use the intersection of word vector similarity sets to blend the distinct semantic spaces of the two words. We conduct preliminary quantitative and qualitative observations to compare the use of this novel inte...
