Paper

The Role of an Abstract Ontology in the Computational Interpretation of Creative Cross-modal Metaphor

Abstract: Various approaches to computational metaphor interpretation are based on pre-existing similarities between source and target domains and/or are based on metaphors already observed to be prevalent in the language. This paper addresses similarity-creating cross-modal metaphoric expressions. The described approach depends on the imposition of abstract ontological components, which represent source concepts, onto target concepts. The challenge of such a system is to represent both denotative and connotative components which are extensible, together with a framework of all general domains between which such extensions can conceivably occur. An existing ontology of this kind is outlined. It is suggested that the use of such an ontology is well adapted to the interpretation of both conventional and unconventional metaphor that is similarity-creating.
