Quantifier Scope in Categorical Compositional Distributional Semantics [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 In previous work with J. Hedges, we formalised a generalised quantifiers theory of natural language in categorical compositional distributional semantics with the help of bialgebras.

Structured Operational Semantics for Graph Rewriting [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2011 Process calculi and graph transformation systems provide models of reactive systems with labelled transition semantics. While the semantics for process calculi is compositional, this is not the case for graph transformation systems, in general.

A computable and compositional semantics for hybrid automata
International Conference on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control, 2020 Hybrid Systems are systems having a mixed discrete and continuous behaviour that cannot be characterized faithfully using either only discrete or only continuous models.

Composition in Distributional Models of Semantics [PDF]
Cognitive Science, 2010 AbstractVector‐based models of word meaning have become increasingly popular in cognitive science. The appeal of these models lies in their ability to represent meaning simply by using distributional information under the assumption that words occurring within similar contexts are semantically similar.

Incremental Composition in Distributional Semantics [PDF]
Journal of Logic, Language and Information, 2021 AbstractDespite the incremental nature of Dynamic Syntax (DS), the semantic grounding of it remains that of predicate logic, itself grounded in set theory, so is poorly suited to expressing the rampantly context-relative nature of word meaning, and related phenomena such as incremental judgements of similarity needed for the modelling of disambiguation.

Compositional and Lexical Semantics in RoBERTa, BERT and DistilBERT: A Case Study on CoQA [PDF]
Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2020 Many NLP tasks have benefited from transferring knowledge from contextualized word embeddings, however the picture of what type of knowledge is transferred is incomplete.

Structured Operational Semantics for Graph Rewriting [PDF]
Scientific Annals of Computer Science, 2012 Process calculi and graph transformation systems provide models of reactive systems with labelled transition semantics (LTS). While the semantics for process calculi is compositional, this is not the case for graph transformation systems, in general ...

Compositional semantics and the lemma dilemma [PDF]
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1999 We discuss two key assumptions of Levelt et al.'s model of lexical retrieval: (1) the nondecompositional character of concepts and (2) lemmas as purely syntactic representations. These assumptions fail to capture the broader role of lemmas, which we propose as that of lexical-semantic representations binding (compositional) semantics with phonology (or

On compositional semantics [PDF]
Proceedings of the 14th conference on Computational linguistics -, 1992 We prove a theorem stating that any semantics can be encoded as a compositional semantics, which means that, essentially, the standard definition of compositionality is formally vacuous. We then show that when one requires compositional semantics to be "systematic" (that is the meaning function cannot be arbitrary, but must belong to some class), one ...

An outline of type-theoretical approaches to lexical semantics
Journal of Language Modelling, 2017 We take the opportunity of the publication of some of the papers of the ESSLLI workshop TYTLES (TYpes Theory and LExical Semantics, ESSLLI 2015, Barcelona) to provide an overview of the possibilities that type theory offer to model lexical semantics ...
