Attention Metaphors: How Metaphors Guide the Cognitive Psychology of Attention
The concept of attention is defined by multiple inconsistent metaphors that scientists use to identify relevant phenomena, frame hypotheses, construct experiments, and interpret data. (1) The Filter metaphor shapes debates about partial vs. complete filtering, early vs. late selection, and information filtering vs. enhancement. (2) The Spotlight metaphor raises the issue of spacevs. object-base...
متن کاملCognitive Compositional Semantics using Continuation Dependencies
This paper describes a graphical semantic representation based on bottom-up ‘continuation’ dependencies which has the important property that its vertices define a usable set of discourse referents in working memory even in contexts involving conjunction in the scope of quantifiers. An evaluation on an existing quantifier scope disambiguation task shows that non-local continuation dependencies ...
متن کاملCompositional Semantics of Coordination using Synchronous Tree Adjoining Grammar
In this paper, we propose a compositional semantics for DP coordination and VP coordination, using Synchronous Tree Adjoining Grammar (STAG). We take advantage of STAG’s capacity to provide an isomorphic derivation of semantic trees in parallel to syntactic ones, using substitution and adjoining in both syntax and semantics. In addition, we use unreduced λ-expressions in semantic elementary tre...
متن کاملIntegrating compositional semantics into a verb lexicon
We present a class-based approach to building a verb lexicon that makes explicit the close association between syntax and semantics for Levin classes. We have used Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars to capture the syntax associated with each verb class and have augmented the trees to include selectional restrictions. In addition, semantic predicates are associated with each tree, which allow f...
متن کاملConnectionism and compositional semantics
Quite a few interesting experiments have been done applying neural networks to natural language tasks. Without detracting from the value of these early investigations, this paper argues that current neural network architectures are too weak to solve anything but toy language problems; Their downfall is the need for "dynamic inference," in which several pieces of information not previously seen ...
