The Research on Semantic Transitivity
Jiangnan Qiu, Lidong Li, Liwen Wu · 2008
The phenomena of semantic transitivity flood in many aspects of information science, especially in knowledge organization, measurement of semantic relatedness as well as semantic inference and semantic mining. However because of the neglect by scholars initially and complex, fuzzy traits of itself, there is little driving, systematic research on semantic transitivity. For providing a theoretical basis for computer simulation and other applications of semantic transitivity in information science, a theoretical system of semantic transitivity has been established, consisting of the definition, the influencing factors, the judging process and the rules of semantic transitivity.
