A terminological frame-network model of the conceptual and semantic organization of notions of computational linguistics

Abstract

The research object is the conceptual and semantic organization of the terminological apparatus, the research subject is the logical and conceptual structure of notions denoted by terms of computational linguistics. The study aims to identify the features of the systemic organization of notions of computational linguistics based on the use of a terminological frame-network model. The paper briefly analyzes the use of the frame approach to modeling the structure of terminological systems by linguists. A terminological frame-network model of the subject area “Computational linguistics” is proposed. The study is illustrated with fragments of the terminological network of frames of the subject area “Synonymy of terms of computational linguistics” presented in the form of diagrams. The work is novel in that it provides an original definition of a terminological network of frames and is the first to formulate the rules for its construction. The research findings showed the possibility of using a terminological frame-network model to analyze the logical and conceptual structure of the subject area “Computational linguistics” and the organization of semantic term-formation processes and lexicosemantic relations in the terminology under study.
