A Cross-Categorial Semantics for Coordination
Linguistics and Philosophy, 1980Abstract There have been two main motivations for the postulation of the transformation known as Coordination Reduction (CR).1 One was syntactic: if, for example, passive and “post-raising” VPs were the product of transformations, then they did not exist in the base and so sentences like (1) and (2) could not involve base VP coordination

Domain theory for denotational semantics is over thirty years old. There are many variations on the idea and many interesting constructs that have been proposed by many people for realizing a wide variety of types as domains. Generally, the effort has been to create categories of domains that are cartesian closed (that is, have products and function ...

Semantic Category and Surface Form
Analysis, 1998There is in philosophy of language a well known conflict concerning how to account for the meaning of expressions of the form 'the F'. On one side are those who adopt a 'unified' stance, believing all definite descriptions to be handled by a quantificational analysis;1 while on the other are those who think some definite descriptions must be handled as

Category width and differentiation in semantic categories
British Journal of Psychology, 1981The hypothesis that the judgemental categorizing behaviour measured by Pettigrew's Category‐Width scale is linked to semantic categorization is investigated. Individual differences in broad vs. narrow categorizing behaviour measured by the C‐W scale are reconceptualized within the framework of Rosch's (1977) theory of human categorization.

Continuation Semantics for Symmetric Categorial Grammar
2007Categorial grammars in the tradition of Lambek [1,2] are asymmetric: sequent statements are of the form Γ ⇒ A, where the succedent is a single formula A, the antecedent a structured configuration of formulas A1, ...,An. The absence of structural context in the succedent makes the analysis of a number of phenomena in natural language semantics ...

Semantic category theory indicates that human thinking involves four, entirely distinct types of information processing, each associated with a totally independent dasiasemantic categorypsila. However, observation also indicates that human cognition does not enforce strong data typing.

Semantic Categories and the Development of Categorial Grammars
1988A main claim about Categorial Grammars is that they involve semantic categories rather than the standard syntactic categories employed in linguistic description. But, what kind of entities are semantic categories? What relation do they impose between syntactic structure and semantic representation?

Semantic Category theory and Semantic Intertwine: the anathema of mathematics
Kybernetes, 2014Purpose – The recent scientific observation that human information processing involves four independent data types, has pinpointed a source of fallacious arguments within many domains of human thought. The species-unique ability to assign observable characteristics to purely conceptual entities has created beautiful ...

Training stochastic grammars on semantical categories
1996The evaluation of systems that parse natural language, on the basis of a score like bracketing accuracy or sentence accuracy, on an unseen text is becoming an important issue in grammar building and parsing. The statistical induction of grammars and the statistical training of (hand written) grammars are ways to attain or improve a score, but a ...

Semantic category dissociations, familiarity and gender.
Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior, 2000We carried out four experiments to assess the extent to which familiarity with certain objects in everyday life is related to gender and can account, at least partially, for the semantic category dissociation observed in a few brain-damaged patients. In the first experiment, 210 normal subjects, half males and half females, were given the names of 60 ...
