Event Representation in Text Understanding - Transfer of Meaning Structures

Haldur Õim, Mare Koit

2013

Abstract

When modelling language understanding we have to deal with the process of transferring meanings. Humans cognize and organize the knowledge about the world, physical as well as social, in such categories as objects, situations, processes, events, etc., not sentences. The same should hold in a computational model. In this paper we will consider one kind of these categories, events. We will discuss the possible analogy in structuring the physical and social events and, accordingly, the possibility to use analogous conceptual and formal means to represent them.
