A Hybrid Neural Network and Virtual Reality System for Spatial Language Processing [PDF]
, 2001 This paper describes a neural network model for the study of spatial language. It deals with both geometric and functional variables, which have been shown to play an important role in the comprehension of spatial prepositions.

Three basic prepositions in French and in English : a comparison
Corela, 2017 The spatial uses of the French prepositions à, dans and sur may be translated by either at, in, on or to, into, onto, depending on whether the landmark introduces the actual or the prospective position of the target.

Standpoint semantics for polysemy in spatial prepositions
Journal of Logic and Computation, 2020 AbstractIn this paper, we present a formalism for handling polysemy in spatial expressions based on supervaluation semantics called standpoint semantics for polysemy (SSP). The goal of this formalism is, given a prepositional phrase, to define its possible spatial interpretations.

Spatial prepositions in context [PDF]
Proceedings of the Third ACL-SIGSEM Workshop on Prepositions - Prepositions '06, 2006 The paper examines how people's judgements of proximity between two objects are influenced by the presence of a third object. In an experiment participants were presented with images containing three shapes in different relative positions, and asked to rate the acceptability of a locative expression such as 'the circle is near the triangle' as ...

Negotiation and Conflict Management Research, EarlyView., 2020 Abstract Strategic word mimicry during negotiations facilitates better outcomes. We explore mimicry of specific word categories and perceptions of rapport, trust, and liking as underlying mechanisms. Dyads took part in an online negotiation exercise in which word mimicry was manipulated: Participants were instructed to mimic each other’s words (both ...

Computational Models for Spatial Prepositions [PDF]
Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Spatial Language
Understanding, 2018 Developing computational models of spatial prepositions (such as on, in, above, etc.) is crucial for such tasks as human-machine collaboration, story understanding, and 3D model generation from descriptions. However, these prepositions are notoriously vague and ambiguous, with meanings depending on the types, shapes and sizes of entities in the ...
