Lambda Dependency-Based Compositional Semantics

نویسنده

  • Percy Liang
چکیده

This short note presents a new formal language, lambda dependency-based compositional semantics (lambda DCS) for representing logical forms in semantic parsing. By eliminating variables and making existential quantification implicit, lambda DCS logical forms are generally more compact than those in lambda calculus.

Learning Compositional Semantics for Open Domain Semantic Parsing

This paper introduces a new approach to learning compositional semantics for open domain semantic parsing. Our approach is called Dependency-based Semantic Composition using Graphs (DeSCoG) and deviates from existing approaches in several ways. First, we remove the need of the lambda calculus by using a graph-based variant of Discourse Representation Structures to represent semantic building bl...

Encoding Generalized Quantifiers in Dependency-based Compositional Semantics

For textual entailment recognition systems, it is often important to correctly handle Generalized quantifiers (GQ). In this paper, we explore ways of encoding GQs in a recent framework of Dependency-based Compositional Semantics, especially aiming to correctly handle linguistic knowledge like hyponymy when GQs are involved. We use both the selection operator mechanism and a new relation extensi...

Sense Contextualization in a Dependency-Based Compositional Distributional Model

Little attention has been paid to distributional compositional methods which employ syntactically structured vector models. As word vectors belonging to different syntactic categories have incompatible syntactic distributions, no trivial compositional operation can be applied to combine them into a new compositional vector. In this article, we generalize the method described by Erk and Padó (20...

Logical Inference on Dependency-based Compositional Semantics

Dependency-based Compositional Semantics (DCS) is a framework of natural language semantics with easy-to-process structures as well as strict semantics. In this paper, we equip the DCS framework with logical inference, by defining abstract denotations as an abstraction of the computing process of denotations in original DCS. An inference engine is built to achieve inference on abstract denotati...

Mapping between Dependency Structures and Compositional Semantic Representations

This paper investigates the mapping between two semantic formalisms, namely the tectogrammatical layer of the Prague Dependency Treebank 2.0 (PDT) and (Robust) Minimal Recursion Semantics ((R)MRS). It is a first attempt to relate the dependency-based annotation scheme of PDT to a compositional semantics approach like (R)MRS. A mapping algorithm that converts PDT trees to (R)MRS structures is de...
