For language generation from such abstract representations, lexicalization is taken as the central step: when choosing words that cover the various parts of the content representation, the principal decisions on conveying the intended meaning are made. A preference mechanism is used to construct the utterance that is best tailored to parameters representing the context. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eLexical Semantics and Knowledge Representation in Multilingual Text\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eGeneration\u003c\/em\u003e develops the means for systematically deriving a set of paraphrases from the same underlying representation with the emphasis on events and verb meaning. Furthermore, the same mapping mechanism is used to achieve multilingual generation: English and German output are produced in parallel, on the basis of an adequate division between language-neutral and language-specific (lexical and grammatical) knowledge. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eLexical Semantics and Knowledge Representation in Multilingual Text\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eGeneration\u003c\/em\u003e provides detailed insights into designing the representations and organizing the generation process. Readers with a background in artificial intelligence, cognitive science, knowledge representation, linguistics, or natural language processing will find a model of language production that can be adapted to a variety of purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45282913157271,"sku":"9780792384199","price":10915.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780792384199.webp?v=1769303544","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/lexical-semantics-and-knowledge-representation-in-multilingual-text-generation-9780792384199","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
