Distributional models have been successful in modelling the meanings of content words, but logical semantics is necessary to adequately represent many function words. We follow formal semantics in mapping language to logical representations, but differ in that the relational constants used are induced by offline distributional clustering at the level of predicateargument structure. Our clustering algorithm is highly scalable, allowing us to run on corpora the size of Gigaword. Different senses of a word are disambiguated based on their induced types. We outperform a variety of existing approaches on a wide-coverage question answering task, and demonstrate the ability to make complex multi-sentence inferences involving quantifiers on the FraCaS suite.",

Because such a semantics can be automically induced, it escapes the limitation of depending on relations from hand-built training data, knowledge bases or ontologies, which have proved of limited use in capturing the huge variety of meanings that can be expressed in language.",

Whilst distributional semantics has been effective in modelling the meanings of content words such as nouns and verbs, it is less clear that it can be applied to the meanings of function words. Semantic operators, such as determiners, negation, conjunctions, modals, tense, mood, aspect, and plurals are ubiquitous in natural language, and are crucial for high performance on many practical applicationsbut current distributional models struggle to capture even simple examples. Conversely, computational models of formal semantics have shown low recall on practical applications, stemming from their reliance on ontologies such as WordNet (Miller, 1995) to model the meanings of content words (Bobrow et al., 2007; Bos and Markert, 2005) .",

For example a different lexical entry for the verb born is used in the contexts Obama was born in Hawaii and Obama was born in 1961, reflecting a distinction in the semantics that is not obvious in the syntax 1 . Typing also greatly improves the efficiency of clustering, as we only need to compare predicates with the same type during clustering (for example, we do not have to consider clustering a predicate between people and places with predicates between people and dates).",

Many existing approaches have shown how to produce good clusterings of (non-event) nouns (Brown et al., 1992) , any of which could be simply integrated into our semantics-but relation clustering remains an open problem (see Section 9). N-ary relations are binarized, by creating a binary relation between each pair of arguments. For example, for the sentence Russia sold Alaska to the United States, the system creates three binary relations-corresponding to sellToSomeone(Russia, Alaska), buyFromSomeone(US, Alaska), sellSome-thingTo(Russia, US). This transformation does not exactly preserve meaning, but still captures the most important relations. Note that this allows us to compare semantic relations across different syntactic types-for example, both transitive verbs and argument-taking nouns can be seen as expressing binary semantic relations between entities. Figure 2 shows the layers used in our model.",

An automatic post-processing step makes a number of minor changes to the parser output, which converts the grammar into one more suitable for our semantics.

Noun compounds with the same MUC named-entity type (Chinchor and Robinson, 1997) are merged into a single non-compositional node 2 (we otherwise ignore named-entity types). All argument NPs and PPs are type-raised, allowing us to represent quantifiers.

For example, the system cannot tell whether born in is expressing a birthplace or birthdate relation until later in the derivation, when it combines with its arguments. However, all the possible logical forms are identical except for the symbols used, which means we can produce a packed logical form capturing the full distribution over logical forms. To do this, we make the predicate a function from argument types to relations. For each word, we first take the lexical semantic definition produced by the algorithm in Section 4. For binary predicates in this definition (which will be untyped), we perform a deterministic lookup in the cluster model learned in Section 6, using all possible corresponding typed predicates. This allows us to represent the binary predicates as packed predicates: functions from argument types to relations.",

We believe these problems will be surmountable with more work. Almost all errors are due to incorrectly predicting unknown -the system makes just one error on yes or no predictions (with or without gold syntax). This suggests that making first-order logic inferences in applications will not harm precision.

There have been several attempts to annotate larger corpora with semantics-such as Ontonotes (Hovy et al., 2006) or the Groningen Meaning Bank (Basile et al., 2012) . These typically map words onto senses in ontologies such as Word-Net, VerbNet (Kipper et al., 2000) and FrameNet (Baker et al., 1998) . However, limitations of these ontologies mean that they do not support inferences such as X is the author of Y \u2192 X wrote Y. Given the difficulty of annotating large amounts of text with semantics, various approaches have attempted to learn meaning without annotated text. Distant Supervision approaches leverage existing knowledge bases, such as Freebase (Bollacker et al., 2008) , to learn semantics (Mintz et al., 2009; Krishnamurthy and Mitchell, 2012) . Dependency-based Compositional Semantics (Liang et al., 2011) learns the meaning of questions by using their answers as denotations-but this appears to be specific to question parsing.

Various attempts have been made to instead induce relations from text by clustering predicates based on their arguments. For example, Yao et al. (2011) propose a series of LDAbased models which cluster relations between entities based on a variety of lexical, syntactic and semantic features. Unsupervised Semantic Parsing (Poon and Domingos, 2009) recursively clusters fragments of dependency trees based on their arguments. Although USP is an elegant model, it is too computationally expensive to run on large corpora. It is also based on frame semantics, so does not cluster equivalent predicates with different frames. To our knowledge, our work is the first such approach to be integrated within a linguistic theory supporting formal semantics for logical operators.",

It is also not obvious how to represent logical relations such as quantification in vector-space models. Baroni et al.

Such approaches convert parser output into formal semantic representations, and have demonstrated some ability to model complex phenomena such as negation. For lexical semantics, they typically compile lexical resources such as VerbNet and WordNet into inference rules-but still achieve only low recall on opendomain tasks, such as RTE, mostly due to the low coverage of such resources. Garrette et al. (2011) use distributional statistics to determine the probability that a WordNet-derived inference rule is valid in a given context. Our approach differs in that we learn inference rules not present in WordNet. Our lexical semantics is integrated into the lexicon, rather than being implemented as additional inference rules, meaning that inference is more efficient, as equivalent statements have the same logical form.",
