Download or read book Natural Language Understanding and Logic Programming, III written by Charles Grant Brown and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1991 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressed in this third workshop on natural language understanding and logic programming are a wide variety of issues and some interesting challenges for future work. For temporal expressions, the intriguing question is examined - Can we in fact provide the translation from the HOL system logic to NL and vice versa. Can we now develop NL systems that take advantage of this logic, and particularly, can we extend the system to deal with duration? Also, a strong formal linguistic base for natural language understanding programs is presented, as well as other topics including temporal persistence, natural semantics and logic, and alternative parses.
