Incrementality and Locality of Language Comprehension: The Pivotal Role of Semantic Interpretation Schemata

Abstract

We introduce a computational model of language comprehension that combines locality of syntactic and semantic analysis with incrementality of processing. As the model incorporates inheritance-based abstraction mechanisms we are able to specify a parsimonious inventory of abstract, simple and domain-independent semantic interpretation schemata.
