Scaling Construction Grammar Up To Production Systems: The Situated Constructional Interpretation Model
نویسنده
چکیده
While a great effort has concerned the development of fully integrated modular understanding systems, few researches have focused on the problem of unifying existing linguistic formalisms with cognitive processing models. The Situated Constructional Interpretation Model is one of these attempts. In this model, the notion of “construction” has been adapted in order to be able to mimic the behavior of Production Systems. The Construction Grammar approach establishes a model of the relations between linguistic forms and meaning, by the mean of constructions. The latter can be considered as pairings from a topologically structured space to an unstructured space, in some way a special kind of production rules.

متن کاملLexical Information and Beyond : Constructional Inferences in Semantic Representation
This paper aims to show that semantic representation of verbs may require the inclusion of constructional inferences in addition to lexical specifications. By examining the transitive pattern of the Mandarin verb GAN (,y) 'rush' , we found that verbal semantics can only be adequately represented if constructionally coerced information is taken into consideration. The construction [GAN + NP] ren...

This paper argues for the inclusion of constructional inferences in semantic representation of verbs. By examining the transitive pattern of the Mandarin verb GA N (趕) ‘rush’, it is found that verbal semantics can only be adequately represented if constructionally coerced information is taken into consideration. The construction [GA N + NP] renders specific interpretations that cannot be direct...
متن کاملBringing Role and Reference Grammar to natural language understanding Aproximación de la Gramática del Papel y la Referencia a la comprensión del lenguaje natural
Role and Reference Grammar is a functional theory of language which allows an input text to be represented in terms of its logical structure. In order to go beyond the core grammar, the Lexical Constructional Model, which is grounded on the previous theoretical model, provides a fine-grained description of all aspects involved in meaning construction. This paper explores the integration of FunG...
متن کاملFluid Construction Grammar on Real Robots
Abstract This chapter introduces very briefly the framework and tools for lexical and grammatical processing that have been used in the evolutionary language game experiments reported in this book. This framework is called Fluid Construction Grammar (FCG) because it rests on a constructional approach to language and emphasizes flexible grammar application. Construction grammar organizes the kno...
