On Coordinating Interpretations - Optimality and Rational Interaction
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we investigate some questions about coordination and interpretation which have been addressed by bidirectional Optimality Theory (Bi–OT). We consider examples from anaphora resolution, and there especially the role of epistemic contexts and expectations. We look at communicative acts as joint projects following H.H. Clark (1996) and model them by using multi–agent systems with joint goals. We especially try to clarify the relation between a model which approaches anaphora resolution within a theory of rational interaction and bidirectional Optimality Theory. We hope that this will lead to a clearer understanding of the reasoning behind Bi–OT if applied to interpretation tasks in dialogue.

The Iinterpretative Analysis of Verse 213 of Chapter Bagherah in Fariqain (Sunni and Shia) Interpretations
The issue of the unity and difference of humans is rooted in the history of man’s social life, and this is the basis for the emergence of divine prophets and the revelation of the heavenly books. With a brief overview of this issue, Verse 213 of chapter Bagherah explains the evolution of human thought in different stages. There are many ambiguities about the nature of the basis of unity, the ca...
متن کاملIsogeometric Topology Optimization by Using Optimality Criteria and Implicit Function
A new method for structural topology optimization is introduced which employs the Isogeometric Analysis (IA) method. In this approach, an implicit function is constructed over the whole domain by Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) basis functions which are also used for creating the geometry and the surface of solution of the elasticity problem. Inspiration of the level set method zero level...
متن کاملOptimality Theory and the Generative Complexity of Constraint Violability
It has been argued that rule-based phonological descriptions can uniformly be expressed as mappings carried out by finite-state transducers, and therefore fall within the class of rational relations. If this property of generative capacity is an empirically correct characterization of phonological mappings, it should hold of any sufficiently restrictive theory of phonology, whether it utilizes ...
متن کاملPolynomial Interpretations over the Reals do not Subsume Polynomial Interpretations over the Integers
Polynomial interpretations are a useful technique for proving termination of term rewrite systems. They come in various flavors: polynomial interpretations with real, rational and integer coefficients. In 2006, Lucas proved that there are rewrite systems that can be shown polynomially terminating by polynomial interpretations with real (algebraic) coefficients, but cannot be shown polynomially ...
