Semantic Visualization and Meaning Computation
نویسنده
چکیده
We present here VISUSYN, a prototype we developed in order to study meaning construction. This software implements the model of dynamic construction of meaning proposed by Victorri and Fuchs (1996). It allows a semantic visualization that can be used to compute the meaning of a lexical unit in a given context

متن کاملDistinct neural correlates for pragmatic and semantic meaning processing: an event-related potential investigation of scalar implicature processing using picture-sentence verification.
The present study examines the brain-level representation and composition of meaning in scalar quantifiers (e.g., some), which have both a semantic meaning (at least one) and a pragmatic meaning (not all). We adopted a picture-sentence verification design to examine event-related potential (ERP) effects of reading infelicitous quantifiers for which the semantic meaning was correct with respect ...
