Spinoza It: Conceptual Case-based Natural Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the theoretical changes that have developed in Conceptual Dependency Theory and their ramifications in computer analysis of natural language. The major items of concern are: the elimination of reliance on 'grammar rules' for parsing with the emphasis given to conceptual rule based parsing; the development of a conceptual case system to account for the power of conceptualizations; the categorization of ACT's based on permissible conceptual cases and other criteria. These items are developed and discussed in the context of a more powerful conceptual parser and a theory of language understanding.

A Natural Language Approach for Requirements Engineering
The term Requirements Engineering refers to this part of a database development cycle that involves investigating the problems and requirements of the users community and developing a conceptual specification of the future system. Natural language plays an important role during this stage that has proved to be crucial in the development of computerized systems. The required acquisition of appli...
متن کاملFrom Natural Language Requirements to a Conceptual Model
In literature it is described in great detail how class diagrams and ER diagrams or UML class diagrams are derived from natural language sentences. It is normally assumed, that there is a direct correspondence between natural language elements (e.g., words) and conceptual model elements. We do not strictly follow this assumption because of the complexity of natural language with its ambiguities...
متن کاملA Method for Conceptual Modeling of Semantically Integrated Use-Case Scenarios
A use-case is specified as a set of possible scenarios of interactions. Scenarios can be decomposed into workflows on different granularity levels. Use-cases are fundamentally a text-based documentation form written in natural language text. The textual description of a complicated scenario can be ambiguous, incomplete and inconsistent. In this paper we demonstrate a conceptual modeling method ...
متن کاملConverging Evidence for Abstract Phonological Knowledge in Speech Processing
phonological knowledge plays a role in all aspects of speech processing. This is true even of those processing realms which may seem to form natural sources of evidence for memory-based effects. Thus we can see that abstractions are involved in many kinds of processing where differences between talkers are at issue. Likewise, though phonological structures are language-specific and hence not in...
متن کاملPre-conceptual Schema: A Conceptual-Graph-Like Knowledge Representation for Requirements Elicitation
A simple representation framework for ontological knowledge with dynamic and deontic characteristics is presented. It represents structural relationships (is-a, part/whole), dynamic relationships (actions such as register, pay, etc.), and conditional relationships (if-then-else). As a case study, we apply our representation language to the task of requirements elicitation in software engineerin...
