A logic of semantic representations for shallow parsing

Alexander Koller, Alex Lascarides · 2009

One way to construct semantic representations in a robust manner is to enhance shallow language processors with semantic components. Here, we provide a model theory for a semantic formalism that is designed for this, namely Robust Minimal Recursion Semantics (rmrs). We show that rmrs supports a notion of entailment that allows it to form the basis for comparing the semantic output of different parses of varying depth.
