Modeling generalized implicatures using non-monotonic logics
Journal of Logic, Language and Information 16 (2) (2007)
| Abstract | This paper reports on an approach to model generalized implicatures using nonmonotonic logics. The approach, called compositional, is based on the idea of compositional semantics, where the implicatures carried by a sentence are constructed from the implicatures carried by its constituents, but it also includes some aspects nonmonotonic logics in order to model the defeasibility of generalized implicatures. | |||||||||
