Unfortunately, it has not been clear how the diagnosticity of property and relational predicates of the concepts combined can be formalized and quantified. Using an information retrieval method we compute, in a uniform manner, diagnosticity values of concepts predicates. We go on to present a reasoning system that attempts to create meaningful interpretations of novel nounnoun combinations. The system is based solely on diagnostic predicates values and a set of constraint satisfaction rules. We show the effectiveness and plausibility of our methods and discuss their potential.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2005/335","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2005/0335.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2005/335.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2005/bibtex/335","volume":{"slug":"2005","title":"Proceedings of the Nineteenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 2005","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2005/","year":2005,"location":"Edinburgh, Scotland, UK","dates":"","editors":"","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":null,"track":"","number":335,"pages":{"first":1585,"last":1585},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
