Addresses the role of structure in semantic analysis from the perspective of theories of meaning using rich theories of types. Also relates the theory of frames to these type theories as introducing, to some extent, similar structure into semantic analysis.  Meer

This Element investigates which ontological categories (such as individuals, properties, events, degrees, and kinds) are minimally required to provide a semantics for natural language.  Meer

This Element gives an introduction to the emerging discipline of natural language ontology. This is an area at the interface of semantics, metaphysics, and philosophy of language that is concerned with which kinds of objects are assumed by our best semantic theories.  Meer

This Element covers the interaction of two research areas: linguistic semantics and deep learning. It focuses on three phenomena central to natural language interpretation: reasoning and inference; compositionality; extralinguistic grounding.  Meer
