Methods discussed involve: (i) the denotational techniques used in model-theoretic semantics, which make it possible to determine whether a linguistic expression is true or false with respect to some model of the way things happen to be; and (ii) stages of interpretation, i.e., ways to arrive at meanings by evaluating and converting source linguistic expressions, possibly with respect to contexts, into output (logical) forms that could be used with (i). The book demonstrates that the methods allow wide coverage without compromising the quality of semantic analysis. Access to unrestricted, robust and accurate semantic analysis is widely regarded as an essential component for improving natural language processing tasks, such as: recognizing textual entailment, information extraction, summarization, automatic reply, and machine translation.Natural language processing (Computer science)Computational linguisticsLogic, Symbolic and mathematicalSemanticsLinguisticsNatural Language Processing (NLP)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21040Computational Linguisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N22000Mathematical Logic and Formal Languageshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I16048Semanticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N39000Theoretical Linguisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N46000Natural language processing (Computer science)Computational linguistics.Logic, Symbolic and mathematical.Semantics.Linguistics.Natural Language Processing (NLP).Computational Linguistics.Mathematical Logic and Formal Languages.Semantics.Theoretical Linguistics.004005.131006.35401.43410410.285Butler Alastairauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut934783BOOK9910299232103321Linguistic Expressions and Semantic Processing2513487UNINA
