Towards Thought as a Logical Picture of Signs

p. 137-152

Abstract

We are concerned with the problem of summarizing the contents of a coherent text. In this paper we argue that complex units of symbols like sentences, for example, are signs and the meaning of a text arises via their interaction. We introduce a model for the generation of summaries and illustrate its potential by a realistic example.
