A formal scenario and metalanguage support means to reason about it

چکیده

We build the reasoning tool of metalanguage support (MS) with the embedded mechanism of the invention of predicates and metapredicates for the comprehension and synthesis tasks. This tool, based on metalanguage representation with weakened soundness, gains the inference flexibility to represent the formal scenarios (for example, a limited class of "logical" anecdotes, derived from NL). We introduce the concept of formal scenario as an alternative to the traditional axiomatic method (logical program) for the practical applications and develop specific MS means to perform the reasoning within a formal scenario. The anecdote scenario is an appealing object of study in the logical programming because it reflects the top level of human intellectual activity on one hand and is rather compact on the other. We present such applications as scenario comprehension and generation, genetic algorithm of MS formula modifications, NL aspects of scenarios and modeling of the psychological disorder with corrupted pretending and believing concepts (autism). Such MS capabilities for scenario representation as reasoning about action, change and belief, temporal and spatial reasoning, are illustrated. MS is based on the rules of metalanguage transfer (inconsistency shift, variability shift and assumption enforcement), which connect the object level with the metalevel and introduce a number of ways to construct the scenario explanation

One and the same language may play the role of object-language and metalanguage. For example, the Russian language taken as an object of linguistic description is an object-language, the Russian language used for a linguistic description of Russian is a metalanguage. Th...

Reasoning frameworks for Service-based Orchestrations

An orchestration is a evaluation which invokes (multiple) remote services in order to compute some required result(s). By assuming that services are pre-specified it is possible to assign meanings to multi-threaded orchestrations. Orc is a structured concurrent calculus which can be used to schedule timeouts and manage multi-threaded service-based orchestrations. Two formal definitions of Orc a...

Ontological Metamodeling with Explicit Instantiation

Model Driven Engineering (MDE) is a promising paradigm for software development. It raises the level of abstraction in software development by treating models as primary artifacts. The definition of a metamodel is a recurring task in MDE and requires sound and formal support. The lack of such support causes deficiencies such as conceptual anomalies in the modeling languages. From philosophical ...

A Contrastive Study of Request Speech Act in English and Persian Novels: Natural Semantic Metalanguage Approach

The Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) Approach claims that there are some universalities in all languages. Speech acts seem to be present in all languages, but considering this approach, research has not indicated whether request speech act differs from one language to another. Thus, this study intended to investigate whether request strategies are used differently in English and Persian roma...
