Intensional Logic as a Medium of Knowledge Representation and Acquisition
Original language description
We present a powerful logical tool for the analysis of natural language expressions, namely Transparent Intensional Logic (TIL). Using TIL enables us to specify a knowledge base as well as the inference machine of an Information System on a high conceptual level of abstraction. After a brief introducing of TIL philosophy, principles and particular definitions, we present a general method of the analysis of interrogative sentences. It is shown that a particular interrogative sentence corresponds to somenon-interrogative counterpart, and the two share a common semantic core that is (in case of empirical questions) an intension (a function from possible worlds and time points #). To find the semantic core, we first determine the type of an answer that isthe value of the denoted intension in a possible world at a time point. The whole method is applied to the HIT conceptual schema, which makes it possible to develop a natural-language based query language over a conceptual schema that is
