Meaning in Action—new techniques for language, logic and information

该项目旨在通过为Montague Grammar（一种适合分析自然语言的正式语言）的综合片段开发证明理论语义来弥合哲学，语言学，逻辑和计算。它旨在展示如何在软件中实现这一点，探索和评估基于推理主义和证明理论语义学的哲学假设。它试图利用和研究逻辑学，语言学，哲学和计算机科学之间的联系，并绘制信息是如何在我们与世界的互动和我们的对话规范的基础。其结果预计将是对逻辑和语言的更真实和全面的理解，以及更灵活和有效通信的软件工具。

This project aims to bridge philosophy, linguistics, logic and computation by developing proof-theoretical semantics for a comprehensive fragment of Montague Grammar (a formal language suited to analysing natural languages). It aims to show how this can be implemented in software, exploring and evaluating the philosophical assumptions grounding inferentialism and proof-theoretical semantics. It seeks to exploit and examine the connections between logic, linguistics philosophy and computer science and to chart how information is grounded in our interaction with the world and our norms for dialogue. The result is expected to be a more realistic and comprehensive understanding of logic and language, and tools for software that communicates more flexibly and effectively.
