Semantics of natural language descriptions of continuous quantities

Más información sobre el libro

The book delves into the challenge of accurately describing continuous quantities in natural language, such as color and shape, which are often inadequately represented in discrete terms. It proposes a semantics framework based on metric spaces to enhance computational treatment of these descriptions. By focusing on flower color and leaf shape, the author illustrates how this approach can integrate multiple texts, improve ontology incorporation, and enable automated reasoning, ultimately enhancing the retrieval and organization of information.
