Ontology in Plain Language: Stepwise Lexical Design

Abstract: Lexical ontologies serve as structured repositories of human knowledge, explicitly representing concepts, their semantic relations, and their lexical realizations. They are instrumental in advancing Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, enabling machines to understand, interpret, and generate human language with greater precision. This paper provides a detailed, step-by-step methodology for constructing a domain-specific lexical ontology … Continue reading “Ontology in Plain Language: Stepwise Lexical Design”

Language Structure: A Cognitive Framework for Syntax and Semantics

Abstract: Understanding how humans produce and comprehend language necessitates a cognitive framework that integrates syntax and semantics. This paper proposes such a framework, drawing on insights from cognitive psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience. It argues that language architecture is not a modular system of isolated components, but rather a dynamic and interactive network of cognitive processes, where … Continue reading “Language Structure: A Cognitive Framework for Syntax and Semantics”
