Abstract:

Today, there is a need to develop natural language processing (NLP) systems
from deeper linguistic approaches. Although there are many NLP applications
which can work without taking into account any linguistic theory, this type of
system can only be described as “deceptively intelligent”. On the other hand,
however, those computer programs requiring some language comprehension
capability should be grounded in a robust linguistic model if they are to
display the expected behaviour. The purpose of this book is to examine and
discuss recent work in meaning and knowledge representation within theoretical
linguistics and cognitive linguistics, particularly research which can be
reused to model NLP applications.
