Semantic Tagging And NLP Applications

There are hardly any an_notation schemes including semantic information, with the exception of Princeton WordNet (which will be extended by EuroWordNet for European languages). But some projects already addressed this topic, like FraCaS (Framework for Computational Semantics), or are starting to do this, like DIET (Diagnostic and Evaluation Tools for NL Applications, an extension of the TSNLP f...

Semantic tree method - historical perspective and applications

The method of semantic tablaux or semantic tree is a very well known method in logic. Everyone who had ever learned logic knows basic rules and applications of this method. In the paper special attention is drawn to the history of this method as a part of the history of computers (especially of the history of mechanization of reasoning) and its applications. The method itself is presented for t...
