Consideration of when Right Association works and when it fails lead to a restatement of this parsing principle in terms of the notion of heaviness. A computational investigation ...
The IDAS natural-language generation system uses a KL-ONE type classifier to perform content determination, surface realisation, and part of text planning. Generation-by-classific...
We present a new compositional tense-aspect deindexing mechanism that makes use of tense trees as components of discourse contexts. The mechanism allows reference episodes to be c...
We show that the class of string languages generated by linear context-free rewriting systems is equal to the class of output languages of deterministic treewalking transducers. F...
Aspects of semantic interpretation, such as quantifier scoping and reference resolution, are often realised computationally by non-monotonic operations involving loss of informati...
