Abstract

The following paper contains a description of a computer program that constructs hierarchical semantic networks from natural language texts in simulating completely and precisely the meaning of the input text. The program works with a formal grammar describing sentences syntactically and a formal semantics transducing texts to networks dependent on their syntactic description. The networks' nodes have concepts or again networks as their values. The networks' edges are many-place relations among the concepts respectively networks. They are realized as reference structures. The program in its actual state works on domains which are to comprehend semantically rather well: A network has be en constructured automatically for the area of general topology from a compendium's definitions (N.Bourbaki. Elements of Mathematics. General topology). Another one is being constructed for the area of computer science.
