Research Abstract

We have developed a syntactico-semantic system that is capable of analyzing the majority of basic japanese sentences, using Scope Control Theory, a semantic framework that gives an account of how sentences are formed based on the interpretability of sentences. We have built up a protoyype of Japanese Treebank in order to evaluate the obtained results. Furthermore, we hacve proposed a neuro-cognitive sentence processing model which fits in with the data obtained from neuro-image experiments.
