On Controlled Natural Languages: Properties and Prospects
نویسندگان
چکیده
This collaborative report highlights the properties and prospects of Controlled Natural Languages (CNLs). The report poses a range of questions concerning the goals of the CNL, the design, the linguistic aspects, the relationships and evaluation of CNLs, and the application tools. In posing the questions, the report attempts to structure the field of CNLs and to encourage further systematic discussion by researchers and developers.

Deterministic Fuzzy Automaton on Subclasses of Fuzzy Regular ω-Languages
In formal language theory, we are mainly interested in the natural language computational aspects of ω-languages. Therefore in this respect it is convenient to consider fuzzy ω-languages. In this paper, we introduce two subclasses of fuzzy regular ω-languages called fuzzy n-local ω-languages and Buchi fuzzy n-local ω-languages, and give some closure properties for those subclasses. We define a ...
متن کاملControlled and Uncontrolled English for Ontology Editing
Ontologies formally represent reality in a way that limits ambiguity and facilitates automated reasoning and data fusion, but is often daunting to the non-technical user. Thus, many researchers have endeavored to hide the formal syntax and semantics of ontologies behind the constructs of Controlled Natural Languages (CNLs), which retain the formal properties of ontologies while simultaneously p...
متن کاملControlled Natural Languages for Knowledge Representation
This paper presents a survey of research in controlled natural languages that can be used as high-level knowledge representation languages. Over the past 10 years or so, a number of machine-oriented controlled natural languages have emerged that can be used as high-level interface languages to various kinds of knowledge systems. These languages are relevant to the area of computational linguist...
متن کاملToward a knowledge-to-text controlled natural language of isiZulu
The language isiZulu belongs to the Nguni group of languages, which also include isiXhosa, isiNdebele and siSwati. Of the four Nguni languages, isiZulu is the most dominant language in South Africa, which is spoken by 22.7% of the country’s 51.8 million population. However, isiZulu (and even more so the other Nguni languages) still remains an under-resourced language for software applications. ...
متن کاملContextual Grammars versus Natural Languages
We continue here the investigations concerning the relevance of certain classes of contextual grammars (internal contextual grammars with maximal use of selectors) as generative models of natural languages. We discuss the mildly context-sensitiveness property (especially the semilinearity and related properties), the possibility to cover certain constructions speci c to natural languages, as we...
