Processing of Syntax and Semantics of Natural Language by Predicate Logic of Predicate Logic
Hiroyuki Yamauchi · International Conference on Computational Linguistics · 1980
The syntax and semantic analyses of natural language are described from the standpoint of manmachine communication. The knowledge based system KAUS(Knowledge Acquisition and Utilization System) which has capabilities of deductive inference and automatic program generation of database access is utilized for that purpose. We try to perform syntax and semantic analyses of English sentences more or less conccurently by defining the correspondence between the basic patterns of English and the extended atomic formula in the framework of KAUS. Knowledge representation based on sets and logic, the sentence analysis utilizing this knowledge are given with some examples.
