  2. Semantic space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_space

    Semantic spaces [note 1] [1] in the natural language domain aim to create representations of natural language that are capable of capturing meaning. The original motivation for semantic spaces stems from two core challenges of natural language: Vocabulary mismatch (the fact that the same meaning can be expressed in many ways) and ambiguity of natural language (the fact that the same term can ...

  4. Semantic memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_memory

    Semantic memory is distinct from episodic memory—the memory of experiences and specific events that occur in one's life that can be recreated at any given point. [3] For instance, semantic memory might contain information about what a cat is, whereas episodic memory might contain a specific memory of stroking a particular cat.

  5. Semantics (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantics_(psychology)

    In psychology, semantic memory is memory for meaning – in other words, the aspect of memory that preserves only the gist, the general significance, of remembered experience – while episodic memory is memory for the ephemeral details – the individual features, or the unique particulars of experience.

  6. Semantic processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Processing

    Semantic processing is the deepest level of processing and it requires the listener to think about the meaning of the cue. Studies on brain imaging have shown that, when semantic processing occurs, there is increased brain activity in the left prefrontal regions of the brain that does not occur during different kinds of processing. One study ...

  7. Wernicke's area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernicke's_area

    Its functions extend beyond mere speech comprehension, encompassing complex cognitive tasks like semantic processing, discerning metaphorical language, and even contributing to the understanding of non-verbal elements in communication. [16] Comparative neurology studies have shed light on the evolutionary aspects of Wernicke's area.

  8. Neurolinguistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurolinguistics

    how the brain stores and accesses words that a person knows Syntax: the study of how multiple-word utterances are constructed: how the brain combines words into constituents and sentences; how structural and semantic information is used in understanding sentences Semantics: the study of how meaning is encoded in language

  9. Mental space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_space

    The mental space is a theoretical construct proposed by Gilles Fauconnier [1] corresponding to possible worlds in truth-conditional semantics.The main difference between a mental space and a possible world is that a mental space does not contain a faithful representation of reality, but an idealized cognitive model.
