This paper investigates an alternative set theory (due to Aczel) called the Hyperset Theory. Aczel uses a graphical representation for sets and thereby allows the representation of non-well-founded sets. A program, called hypersolver, which can solve systems of equations defined in terms of sets in the universe of this new theory is presented. This may be a useful tool for commonsense reasoning. © 1995

35. Situation Semantics and the ontology of natural language

Situation Semantics emerged in the 1980s with an ambitious program of reform for semantics, both in the domain of semantic ontology and with regard to the integration of context in meaning. This article takes as its initial focus the topic of a situation-based ontology, more generally discussing the approach to NL ontology that emerged from situation semantics. The latter part of the article will explain how recent work synthesizing situation semantics with type theory enables the original intuitions from situation semantics to be captured in a dynamic, computationally tractable framework.
