Learning the Semantics of Manipulation Action [PDF]

The 53rd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) 1 (2015) 676-686, 2015
In this paper we present a formal computational framework for modeling manipulation actions. The introduced formalism leads to semantics of manipulation action and has applications to both observing and understanding human manipulation actions as well as executing them with a robotic mechanism (e.g. a humanoid robot).

Uncovering the architecture of action semantics. [PDF]

J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform, 2014
Despite research suggesting that stored sensorimotor information about tool use is a component of the semantic representations of tools, little is known about the action features or organizing principles that underlie this knowledge. We used methods similar to those applied in other semantic domains to examine the "architecture" of action semantic ...

Action Semantics at the Bottom of the Brain: Insights From Dysplastic Cerebellar Gangliocytoma [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
Recent embodied cognition research shows that access to action verbs in shallow-processing tasks becomes selectively compromised upon atrophy of the cerebellum, a critical motor region.

ERP-based evidence for the independent processing of structural and functional action semantics [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience
In this study, the semantic processing and neural mechanisms of manipulative actions, categorized as structural actions and functional actions, were examined to assess whether these action types involve independent cognitive processes.

Semantics-Assisted Training Graph Convolution Network for Skeleton-Based Action Recognition [PDF]

Sensors
The skeleton-based action recognition networks often focus on extracting features such as joints from samples, while neglecting the semantic relationships inherent in actions, which also contain valuable information. To address the lack of utilization of

Type inference for action semantics [PDF]

, 1990
In a series of papers [11,12,13,14,15,25,26], Mosses and Watt defme action semantics, a metalanguage for high level, domain-independent formulation of denotational semantics definitions. Action semantics was designed to support readability, abstraction, modularity, and modifiability of language definitions [13,15].

Semantics in action: a guide for representing clinical data elements with SNOMED CT [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical Semantics
Background Clinical data is abundant, but meaningful reuse remains lacking. Semantic representation using SNOMED CT can improve research, public health, and quality of care.

An Introduction to Action Semantics [PDF]

DAIMI Report Series, 1991
<p>Formal semantics is a topic of major importance in the study of programming languages. Its applications include documenting language design, establishing standards for implementations, reasoning about programs, and generating compilers.</p><p> </p><p>These notes introduce <em>action semantics</em>, a ...

Scene semantics affects allocentric spatial coding for action in naturalistic (virtual) environments [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Interacting with objects in our environment requires determining their locations, often with respect to surrounding objects (i.e., allocentrically). According to the scene grammar framework, these usually small, local objects are movable within a scene ...

Sememe Heredity of Action Semantics: Evidence From the Priming Effect and Prospective Memory [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020
The sememe heredity of action semantics may be affected by the related association of a verb or noun in an action phrase and the related association between one action phrase and another.
