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 \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-01-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792384199\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-5179-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 219.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578417406092,"sku":"9780792384199","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792384199.jpg?v=1767146574","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792384199","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
