The familiar other: Cultural representations and Netherlands-Iran relations, 1959-1979

Flat but not shallow. Towards flatter representations in deep semantic parsing for precise and feasible inferencing
Simulating human language understanding on the computer is a great challenge. A way to approach it is to represent natural language meanings in logic, and to use logical provers to determine what does and does not follow from a text. What logic is best to use and how natural language meanings are best…
