gems: a model of sentence production
... The meaning of a lexical entry is made up of four components. (a) T h e r e are first of all one or more propositional units with the same types of predicates that are found in ENC. The only difference is that the units which are found in a lexical entry have letter codes and not number codes on the ...

Chapter 2, Logic
... I’ll start by introducing some terminology. An inference proceeds from a starting point to an end point. We need a word for the types of entity that can feature in an inference. The one most commonly used is ‘proposition’. A proposition is some sort of claim that can be either true of false. Some lo ...

... (2) The learning tenet: We learn concepts from individual experiences, or ‘exemplars’. One conclusion that can be drawn from experimental results is that we learn by building ‘prototype’ schemas on the remembered exemplars, but without deleting the latter from memory (Reisberg 2007:321); and another ...
