As part of an interdisciplinary project to develop a computational cognitive model of a reader of narrative text, we are
developing a computational theory of how natural-language-understanding systems can automatically acquire new
vocabulary by determining from context the meaning of words that are unknown, misunderstood, or used in a new
sense. `Context' includes surrounding text, grammatical information, and background knowledge, but no external
sources. Our thesis is that the meaning of such a word can be determined from context, can be revised upon further
encounters with the word, "converges" to a dictionary-like definition if enough context has been provided and there
have been enough exposures to the word, and eventually "settles down" to a "steady state" that is always subject
to revision upon further encounters with the word. The system is being implemented in the SNePS knowledgerepresentation
and reasoning system.
