Conceptual role semantics
Conceptual role semantics (CRS) is the view that the meanings of expressions of a language (or other symbol system) or the contents of mental states are determined or explained by the role of the expressions or mental states in thinking. The theory can be taken to be applicable to language in the ordinary sense, to mental representations, conceived of either as symbols in a " language of though...
متن کاملThe Role of Conceptual Role Semantics"
A corollary of I and II is that the use of symbols in calculation and thought is more basic than the use of symbols in communication. It seems to me that a good way to appreciate the role of CRS is to compare it with truth conditional semantics (TCS). Harman seems to consider the two approaches to be to some extent in competition with each other and has argued that TCS can make at most a subsid...
متن کاملConceptual Role Semantics , the Theory Theory
The purpose of the paper is twofold. I first outline a philosophical theory of concepts based on conceptual role semantics. This approach is explicitly intended as a framework for the study and explanation of conceptual change in science. Then I point to the close similarities between this philosophical framework and the theory theory of concepts, suggesting that a convergence between psycholog...
متن کاملRole-Based Semantics for Conceptual-Level Queries
We are developing a system known as QUICK (for QUICK is a Universal Interface with Conceptual Knowledge) which provides simplified access to database systems. It allows users to develop applications and specify ad hoc queries without requiring them to understand the underlying schema. Users present high-level queries that specify only attributes to be selected and their constraints. In turn, QU...
متن کاملSemantics of Conceptual Graphs
Conceptual graphs are both a language for representing knowledge and patterns for constructing models. They form models in the AI sense of structures that approximate some actual or possible system in the real world. They also form models in the logical sense of structures for which some set of axioms are true. When combined with recent developments in nonstandard logic and semantics, conceptua...
