Corrections and Higher-Order Unification
Autor: Claire Gardent and Michael Kohlhase and Noor van Leusen
Herausgeber:
We propose an analysis of corrections which models some
of the requirements corrections place on context. We then show
that this analysis naturally extends to the interaction of
corrections with pronominal anaphora on the one hand, and
(in)definiteness on the other. The analysis builds on previous
unification--based approaches to NL semantics and relies on
Higher--Order Unification with Equivalences, a form of
unification which takes into account not only syntactic
beta-eta-identity but also denotational equivalence.
