Linguistic Meaning And Knowledge Representation In Automatic Understanding Of Natural Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
The necessity of and means for distinguishing between a level of linguistic meaning and a domain of "factual knowledge" (or cognitive content) are argued for, supported by a survey of relevant operational criteria. The level of meaning is characterized as a safe base for computational applications, which allows for a set of inference rules accounting for the content (factual relations) of a given domain.

Language without communication intention
This paper argues that a language can exist and flourish in a community even if none of of the members of the community has any communication intentions; and that reference to the notion of communication intention can therefore be dispensed with in the core account of the nature oflinguistic meaning. Certainly one cannot elucidate the notion of linguistic meaning without reference to psychologi...
متن کاملA Knowledge Representation for Expressing Simple Algorithms
This paper is about designing a platform for creating formalized semantic representations to express algorithmic knowledge and their implementations in a high level language program. Representations are mechanisms for expressing any linguistic utterance. Improvements in human understanding of those utterances is achieved when each of those utterances are expressed using representations with the...
متن کاملSemantic Approach to Knowledge Processing
The processing of semantic information requires the adequate knowledge representation and ability to interpret semantically related knowledge. The majority of present day approaches to knowledge representation and processing are based on symbolic approach, i.e. on describing the meaning of represented domain knowledge and procedural knowledge used to process this domain knowledge. Hierarchical ...
متن کاملMeaning Representation for Knowledge Sharing in Practical Machine Translation
Knowledge-based machine translation can be viewed as the problem of extracting and representing the meaning of a text and generating a translation in a target language using the meaning representation. Meaning extraction requires the integration of information present explicitly in a text with common sense and domain knowledge given to the system. Thus, integrating linguistic knowledge of each ...
متن کاملTemporal Grounding Graphs for Language Understanding with Accrued Visual-Linguistic Context
A robot’s ability to understand or ground natural language instructions is fundamentally tied to its knowledge about the surrounding world. We present an approach to grounding natural language utterances in the context of factual information gathered through natural-language interactions and past visual observations. A probabilistic model estimates, from a natural language utterance, the object...
