Commonsense Reasoning with Verbs
نویسندگان
چکیده
KT encodes commonsense knowledge (CK) about entities and relations in a cross-classified Ontology and a database of generic (prototypical and inherent) information. The verb Ontology combines linguistic and psycholinguistic classification. The generic information for verbs encodes typical associations with actions and events. This knowledge base is useful for word-sense disambiguation, inferencing without scripts, discourse reasoning, and post-verbal PP attachment.

Ethnomethodology and Conversational Analysis
In a speech community, people utilize their communicative competence which they have acquired from their society as part of their distinctive sociolinguistic identity. They negotiate and share meanings, because they have commonsense knowledge about the world, and have universal practical reasoning. Their commonsense knowledge is embodied in their language. Thus, not only does social life depend...
متن کاملInterleaved Inductive-Abductive Reasoning for Learning Complex Event Models
We propose an interleaved inductive-abductive model for reasoning about complex spatio-temporal narratives. Typed Inductive Logic Programming (Typed-ILP) is used as a basis for learning the domain theory by generalising from observation data, whereas abductive reasoning is used for noisy data correction by scenario and narrative completion thereby improving the inductive learning to get semanti...
متن کاملSemantic interpretation of temporal information by abductive inference
Besides temporal information explicitly available in verbs and adjuncts, the temporal interpretation of a text also depends on general world knowledge and default assumptions. We will present a theory for describing the relation between, on the one hand, verbs, their tenses and adjuncts and, on the other, the eventualities and periods of time they represent and their relative temporal locations...
متن کاملReasoning with Heterogeneous Knowledge for Commonsense Machine Comprehension
Reasoning with commonsense knowledge is critical for natural language understanding. Traditional methods for commonsense machine comprehension mostly only focus on one specific kind of knowledge, neglecting the fact that commonsense reasoning requires simultaneously considering different kinds of commonsense knowledge. In this paper, we propose a multi-knowledge reasoning method, which can expl...
متن کاملAbductive reasoning with temporal information
Texts in natural language contain a lot of temporal information, both explicit and implicit. Verbs and temporal adjuncts carry most of the explicit information, but for a full understanding general world knowledge and default assumptions have to be taken into account. We will present a theory for describing the relation between, on the one hand, verbs, their tenses and adjuncts and, on the othe...
