A Notion of Semantic Coherence for Underspecified Semantic Representation
The general problem of finding satisfying solutions to constraint-based underspecified representations of quantifier scope is NP-complete. Existing frameworks, including Dominance Graphs, Minimal Recursion Semantics, and Hole Semantics, have struggled to balance expressivity and tractability, in order to cover real natural language sentences with efficient algorithms. We address this trade-off ...
متن کاملToward a Universal Underspecified Semantic Representation
We define Canonical Form Minimal Recursion Semantics (CF-MRS) and prove that all the well-formed MRS structures generated by the MRS semantic composition algorithm are in this form. We prove that the qeq relationships are equivalent to outscoping relations when MRS structures are in this form. This result fills the gap between some underspecification formalisms and motivates defining a Canonica...
متن کاملA Lexicon for Underspecified Semantic Tagging
The paper defends the notion that semantic tagging should be viewed as more than disambiguation between senses. Instead, semantic tagging should be a first step in the interpretation process by assigning each lexical item a representation of all of its systematically related senses, from which further semantic processing steps can derive discourse dependent interpretations. This leads to a new ...
متن کاملSentences with Two Subordinate Clauses: Syntactic and Semantic Analyses, Underspecified Semantic Representation
I show that sentences with two subordinate clauses may receive two syntactic analyses, and that each syntactic analysis may receive two semantic interpretations. Hence, I put forward an underspecified semantic representation such that each syntactic analysis receives only one underspecified interpretation.
متن کاملRelaxing Underspecified Semantic Representations for Reinterpretation
Type and sort connicts in semantics are usually resolved by a process of reinterpretation. Recently, Egg (1999) has proposed an alternative account in which connicts are avoided by underspeciication. The main idea is to derive suuciently relaxed underspeciied semantic representations ; addition of reinterpretation operators then simply is further specialization. But in principle, relaxing under...
