The Possibilities for Intelligent Analysis of Scientific Texts by Construction of their Cognitive Models

详细

This paper provides a study of cognitive structures of scientific texts within the framework of the activity paradigm. We define mental actions as actions that are aimed at constructing new or reconstructing already existing abstract objects. As is typical for scientific communication, forms of implementing mental actions mediated by certain verbal units and textual techniques are considered as mental operations. This pilot study demonstrated the fundamental possibility of constructing a model of the intelligent structure of a scientific text, including an assessment of the textual representation of categories reflecting various mental operations, and the identification of its intelligent scheme. A formal presentation of mental operations used to “describe a phenomenon new to science” is proposed.
