Abstract

We define sentence generalization and generalization diagrams as a special sort of conceptual graphs which can be constructed automatically from syntactic parse trees and support semantic classification task. Similarity measure between syntactic parse trees is developed as a generalization operation on the lists of sub-trees of these trees. The diagrams are representation of mapping between the syntactic generalization level and semantic generalization level (anti-unification of logic forms). Generalization diagrams are intended to be more accurate semantic representation than conventional conceptual graphs for individual sentences because only syntactic commonalities are represented at semantic level.
