Abstract

In conversations, stories, news reporting, and other forms of natural language, when story line moves forward and additional facts become known or time and location of the scene changed, the first facts of the text may be supported, contradicted, or refined. In these cases, more than one context exists in the text. Different methods of text representation have been offered from a bag of unigram, bigram, etc. to the bag of the words accompanied with lexical, syntactical and semantic features, or graph representation of the text, or First-Order-Logic representation. But in all the representation method for different natural language understanding problems, context has not been considered. Thus text representations include contradiction or disorganization may cause fatal problems in understanding. This research develops a new method to develop context aware text representation. This representation keeps lexical, syntactical, and semantic aspect of the statement as well as keeping track of the contexts the events and state happens in it and changing from one context to another context. The method can offer both graph representation and First-Order-Logic representation of the text.
