Discourse processing and text representation from a “Mental Models” perspective

Abstract

This paper introduces the topics of discourse representation and text processing from a “mental models” perspective. It outlines the mental models approach to the principal topics discussed in the papers that follow: combinatory semantics, anaphora and inference. Finally, it points to the flexibility of the language-processing system. Some aspects of this flexibility are most naturally described within the mental models framework. Others, however, are purely strategic.
