The mathematics of text structure

B Coecke - Joachim Lambek: The Interplay of Mathematics, Logic …, 2021 - Springer
In previous work we gave a mathematical foundation, referred to as DisCoCat, for how
words interact in a sentence in order to produce the meaning of that sentence. To do so, we …

An introduction to string diagrams for computer scientists

R Piedeleu, F Zanasi - arXiv preprint arXiv:2305.08768, 2023 - arxiv.org
This document is an elementary introduction to string diagrams. It takes a computer science
perspective: rather than using category theory as a starting point, we build on intuitions from …

Quantum natural language processing on near-term quantum computers

K Meichanetzidis, S Gogioso, G De Felice… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
In this work, we describe a full-stack pipeline for natural language processing on near-term
quantum computers, aka QNLP. The language-modelling framework we employ is that of …

Distilling text into circuits

V Wang-Mascianica, J Liu, B Coecke - arXiv preprint arXiv:2301.10595, 2023 - arxiv.org
This paper concerns the structure of meanings within natural language. Earlier, a framework
