Monotonic Inference for Underspecified Episodic Logic

Gene Kim, Mandar Juvekar, Lenhart Schubert


Abstract
We present a method of making natural logic inferences from Unscoped Logical Form of Episodic Logic. We establish a correspondence between inference rules of scope resolved Episodic Logic and the natural logic treatment by Sánchez Valencia (1991a), and hence demonstrate the ability to handle foundational natural logic inferences from prior literature as well as more general nested monotonicity inferences.
