  1. Natural-Language Predicates as Relations of the Relational Model of Data.Olga Poller - 2022 - Axiomathes 32 (3):993-1039.
    In this paper I review the Neo-Davidsonian semantics of prepositional phrases and secondary predication. I argue that certain types of examples pose challenge to this semantics. I present an alternative to the Neo-Davidsonian analysis which successfully deals with the problematic examples. The core idea lies in representing theta-roles not as functions from events to their participants, but rather as argument-labels encoding the role of each argument in a given verb. As a result, natural-language predicates can now be treated in the (...)

  • Translating a Fragment of Natural Deduction System for Natural Language into Modern Type Theory.Ivo Pezlar - 2019 - In Rainer Osswald, Christian Retoré & Peter Sutton (eds.), Proceedings of the IWCS 2019 Workshop on Computing Semantics with Types, Frames and Related Structures. Association for Computational Linguistics. pp. 10-18.
    In this paper, we investigate the possibility of translating a fragment of natural deduction system (NDS) for natural language semantics into modern type theory (MTT), originally suggested by Luo (2014). Our main goal will be to examine and translate the basic rules of NDS (namely, meta-rules, structural rules, identity rules, noun rules and rules for intersective and subsective adjectives) to MTT. Additionally, we will also consider some of their general features.
