Une expérience de sémantique inférentielle

We are developing a system that aims to perform the same inferences as a human reader, on car-crash reports. More precisely, we expect it to determine the causes of the accident as they appear from the text. We describe the general semantic framework in which our study takes place, the linguistic and semantic levels of analysis, and the inference rules used by the system.
