Compositional Distributional Cognition
We accommodate the Integrated Connectionist/Symbolic Architecture (ICS) of [32] within the categorical compositional semantics (CatCo) of [13], forming a model of categorical compositional cognition (CatCog). This resolves intrinsic problems with ICS such as the fact that representations inhabit an unbounded space and that sentences with differing tree structures cannot be directly compared. We do so in a way that makes the most of the grammatical structure available, in contrast to strategies like circular convolution. Using the CatCo model also allows us to make use of tools developed for CatCo such as the representation of ambiguity and logical reasoning via density matrices, structural meanings for words such as relative pronouns, and addressing over- and under-extension, all of which are present in cognitive processes. Moreover the CatCog framework is sufficiently flexible to allow for entirely different representations of meaning, such as conceptual spaces. Interestingly, since the CatCo model was largely inspired by categorical quantum mechanics, so is CatCog.

Applying Distributional Compositional Categorical Models of Meaning to Language Translation
The aim of this paper is twofold: first we will use vector space distributional compositional categorical models of meaning to compare the meaning of sentences in Irish and in English (and thus ascertain when a sentence …
SentenceTranslationWhen a Red Herring in Not a Red Herring: Using Compositional Methods to Detect Non-Compositional Phrases
Non-compositional phrases such as \textit{red herring} and weakly compositional phrases such as \textit{spelling bee} are an integral part of natural language (Sag, 2002). They are also the phrases that are difficult, or…
Typology of Adjectives Benchmark for Compositional Distributional Models
In this paper we present a novel application of compositional distributional semantic models (CDSMs): prediction of lexical typology. The paper introduces the notion of typological closeness, which is a novel rigorous fo…
