VigNet: Grounding Language in Graphics using Frame Semantics
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces Vignette Semantics, a lexical semantic theory based on Frame Semantics that represents conceptual and graphical relations. We also describe a lexical resource that implements this theory, VigNet, and its application in text-to-scene generation.

Application of Frame Semantics to Teaching Seeing and Hearing Vocabulary to Iranian EFL Learners
A term in one language rarely has an absolute synonymous meaning in the same language; besides, it rarely has an equivalent meaning in an L2. English synonyms of seeing and hearing are particularly grammatically and semantically different. Frame semantics is a good tool for discovering differences between synonymous words in L2 and differences between supposed L1 and L2 equivalents. Vocabulary ...
متن کاملTranslation and Hybridity in Scenes and Frames Semantics
The present study is a theoretical attempt to illustrate how Fillmore's Scenes and Frames Semantics (SFS) could be employed as a framework to portray the process of understanding and translating hybrid texts. It first reviews the origin of SFS; then it maps SFS onto Nida’s linguistic model of translation process and the Interpretive Theory of Translation; it examines in the next section, withi...
متن کاملGrounding Scenarios in Frame-Based Action Semantics
Scenarios that describe concrete situations of software operation play an important role in software development, and in particular in requirements engineering. Scenario details should vary in content and detail when described from different viewpoints (e.g. types of user or external interface), but this presents a difficulty, because informal scenarios cannot easily be translated from one view...
متن کاملNatural Language Parsing using Cell Assemblies: computational linguistics with attractor nets
Computationally, neural processors have an obvious mechanism of symbol grounding; symbols can be grounded in sensory data giving a mechanism for at least basic sensory semantics. So neural processing has a hope of resolving the classic AI symbol grounding problem (Fodor 2000), since its symbols are grounded in sensory inputs. Semantics are critical for resolving parsing ambiguities and for robu...
متن کاملEmbodied AI: Symbol Grounding through Imagination
This paper presents the principle of symbol grounding in robots. If a robot does not understand words, the robot cannot autonomously talk in the physical world. Understanding language symbols is a necessary condition for autonomous conversations. First, how humans understand language symbols is briefly studied. Humans’ symbol manipulation is based on imagination. Recent brain science shows that...
