%0 Report %@ 247 %A Zadeh, Lotfi A. %T Test-Score Semantics for Natural Languages and Meaning Representation via PRUF %C 333 Ravenswood Ave, Menlo Park, CA 94025 %I AI Center, SRI International %D 1981 %K Natural Language, Semantics!Test-Score %X In a sharp departure from conventional approaches to the problem of meaning representation in natural languages, test-score semantics is based on the premise that almost everything that relates to natural language is a matter of degree. Thus, in test-score semantics, predicates, propositions and other types of linguistic entities are treated as collections of elastic constraints on a set of objects or relations in a universe of discourse. %U http://www.ai.sri.com/pubs/files/1388.pdf
