Categories of Semantic Concepts
This addresses a theoretical issue in cognitive science and linguistics, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing tools without clear empirical validation.
The paper tackles the foundational problem of modeling concept representation in cognition and linguistics by developing a domain-independent categorical formalism for 'concept', building on semantic spaces and category theory.
Modelling concept representation is a foundational problem in the study of cognition and linguistics. This work builds on the confluence of conceptual tools from Gärdenfors semantic spaces, categorical compositional linguistics, and applied category theory to present a domain-independent and categorical formalism of 'concept'.
