The relation between ontologies and language is currently at the forefront of natural language processing (NLP). Ontologies as widely used models in semantic technologies have much in common with the lexicon. A lexicon organizes words as a conventional... ... more

This volume examines how the displacement property of language is characterized in formal terms under the Minimalist Program and to what extent this proposed characterization of it can explain relevant displacement properties. The birth of the... ... more

This volume is a collection of original contributions that address the problem of words and their meaning. This represents a still difficult and controversial area within various disciplines: linguistics philosophy and artificial intelligence. Although... ... more

As a pioneer in computational linguistics working in the earliest days of language processing by computer Margaret Masterman believed that meaning not grammar was the key to understanding languages and that machines could determine the meaning of... ... more

This book collects the contributions presented at the international congress held at the University of Bologna in January 2007 where leading scholars of different persuasions and interests offered an up-to-date overview of the current status of the... ... more

Languages in all their forms are the more efficient and natural means for people to communicate. Enormous quantities of information are produced distributed and consumed using languages. Human language technology s main purpose is to allow the use of... ... more

This book is the first extensive study on French Quantification in the field of Syntax. It provides a typology of four main quantified noun phrases in French (existential universal negative and wh-) detailing their syntactic semantic and prosodic... ... more

Memory-based language processing--a machine learning and problem solving method for language technology--is based on the idea that the direct re-use of examples using analogical reasoning is more suited for solving language processing problems than the... ... more

With the first publication of this book in 1988 the centrality of the lexicon in language research was becoming increasingly apparent and the use of relational models of the lexicon had been the particular focus of research in a variety of disciplines... ... more

Finishing this book was one of the most difficult things I have ever done. It took far too long from original idea to page proofs and suffered from being relegated to small corners of my life. It was very rarely on the front burner. Since I started... ... more

This book is a revision of my doctoral dissertation completed at the University of British Columbia in 2005. The members of my doctoral committee ? Henry Davis Rose-Marie Déchaine Martina Wiltschko ? were instrumental in shaping the content and... ... more

A primary problem in the area of natural language processing has been semantic analysis. This book looks at the semantics of natural languages in context. It presents an approach to the computational processing of English text that combines current... ... more

Although (almost) all sentences have subjects not all sentences encode their subjects in the same way. Some languages overtly mark some subjects but not others depending on certain features of the subject argument or the sentence in which the subject... ... more

This book presents a collection of papers on the issue of focus in its broadest sense. While commonly considered as being related to phenomena such as presupposition and anaphora focusing is much more widely spread and it is this pervasiveness that the... ... more

Linking - how semantic arguments map to the syntax - is one of the challenges for theories of the syntax-semantics interface. In this new approach Janet Randall explores the hypothesis that the positions of syntactic arguments are strictly determined... ... more

This book is based in large part on fieldwork that I conducted in Brittany and Wales in 1983 and 1985. I am thankful for a Fulbright Award for Research in Western Europe and a Faculty Development Award from the University of North Carolina that funded... ... more

This collection takes the exciting step of examining natural language phenomena from the perspectives of both computational linguistics and formal semantics. Computational linguistics has until now been primarily concerned with the construction of... ... more

This book grew out of a concern we have had that very many theoretical and descriptive work on the Kwa languages were not accessible to the general linguistic community. As a result these languages were only referred to in the context of very specific... ... more
