The data from which these demonstratives are

Approaches to Anaphora Resolution in a Natural Language Database Management System
This paper describes in detail the computational process of finding the non-indexical linguistic objects to which pronoun anaphoras resolve. The successful development of discrete steps for anaphora resolution is critical for any natural language ...

This paper shows how the dynamic interpretation of natural language introduced in work by Hans Kamp and Irene Heim can be modeled in classical type logic. This provides a synthesis between Richard Montague's theory of natural language semantics and the work by Kamp and Heim.
