Some Meaning Procedures of Ontological Semantics
Marjorie J. McShane, Stephen Beale, Sergei Nirenburg · 2004
This paper presents implemented algorithms for interpreting the meaning of certain context-dependent lexical items within the Ontological Semantic text processing environment.We discuss the form, function and rationale behind three meaning procedures, all of which are, in a certain sense, numerically oriented.We show that only a knowledge-rich processing system can fully interpret such entities, and that an integrated combination of static resources and processors provides sufficient foundation for high-quality text interpretation.
