Abstract:

In recent years, there has been a proliferation of technological developments
that incorporate processing of human language. Hardware and software can be
specialized for designated subject areas, and computational devices are
designed for a widening variety of applications. At the same time, new areas
and applications are emerging by demanding intelligent technology enhanced by
the processing of human language. These new applications often perform tasks
which handle information, and they have a capacity to reason, using both
formal and human language. Many sub-areas of Artificial Intelligence demand
integration of Natural Language Processing, at least to some degree.
Furthermore, technologies require coverage of known as well as unknown agents,
and tasks with potential variations. All of this takes place in environments
with unknown factors.

The book covers theoretical work, advanced applications, approaches, and
techniques for computational models of information, reasoning systems, and
presentation in language. The book promotes work on intelligent natural
language processing and related models of information, thought, reasoning, and
other cognitive processes. The topics covered by the chapters prompt further
research and developments of advanced systems in the areas of logic,
computability, computational linguistics, cognitive science, neuroscience of
language, robotics, and artificial intelligence, among others.
