| Abstract: | The language used to describe technical domains like UNIX is filled with metaphor. An approach to metaphor, based on theexplicit representation of knowledge about metaphors, has beendeveloped. MIDAS (Metaphor Interpretation, Denotation, andAcquisition System) is a computer program that that has been developedbased upon this approach. MIDAS can be used to representknowledge about conventional metaphors, interpret metaphoric languageby applying this knowledge, and dynamically learn new metaphors asthey are encountered during normal processing. |
