Toward a Representation of Time to Process Temporal Location Adverbials
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a method to represent temporal lo-calization in such a way that it could be used in a system for natural language processing. We show that linguistic information is not suucient to deal with temporal lo-calization adverbials in natural language processing. A representation of time with a greater level of abstraction must be used. We propose an implementation of such a representation, based on a type lattice structure, and a method for interfacing this representation with discourse.

Toward a more fine - grained theory of temporal adverbials
In this paper I propose that a core property of adverbial meaning is the ability (or the lack thereof) of an adverbial to introduce a new time discourse referent. The core data comes from that same day in narrative discourse. I argue that unlike other previously studied temporal adverbials—which introduce a new time discourse referent and relate it to the speech time or a previously mentioned t...

Cycling is a phenomenon in urban transportation that has the ability to allocate a specific location at any moment in time. Accordingly, spatial analysis of bicycle trips can be accompanied by temporal analysis. The use of a GIS environment is commonly recommended to display the extent of the phenomenon's spatial changes. However, in order to apply and display changes over time, it will requir...
متن کاملTemporal transitions in narrative production with wordless picture books
1. Introduction When we tell a story, we don't always describe a sequence of scenes or situations in continuous time, but often introduce shifts in story time. These narrative time shifts can be explicitly marked with phrasal adverbials such as a few hours later, but explicit temporal adverbials and time references are not the only kinds of narrative devices for indicating the temporal structur...
متن کاملA Formal Representation Of Propositions And Temporal Adverbials
The topic of the paper is the introduction of a formalism that permits a homogeneous representation of definite temporal adverbials, temporal quantifications (as frequency and duration), temporal conJ~ctions and tenses, and of their combinations with propositions. This unified representation renders it possible to show how these components refer to each other and interact in creati~ temporal me...
