Efficient Markov Logic Inference for Natural Language Semantics
@inproceedings{Beltagy2014EfficientML, title={Efficient Markov Logic Inference for Natural Language Semantics}, author={Iz Beltagy and R. Mooney}, booktitle={AAAI Workshop: Statistical Relational Artificial Intelligence}, year={2014} }
Using Markov logic to integrate logical and distributional information in natural-language semantics results in complex inference problems involving long, complicated formulae. Current inference methods for Markov logic are ineffective on such problems. To address this problem, we propose a new inference algorithm based on SampleSearch that computes probabilities of complete formulae rather than ground atoms. We also introduce a modified closed-world assumption that significantly reduces the… CONTINUE READING
