It also gives a worked-out example to show the use of contexts in lifting, i.e., how propositions holding in a particular context transform when they are moved to another context. This is useful in NLP applications where preserving meaning is a desideratum.EnglishCommonsense ReasoningContextKnowledge RepresentationLiftingNatural Language ProcessingSituation TheoryContext Sensitive LanguagesNatural Language Processing SystemsThe use of situation theory in context modelingArticle10.1111/0824-7935.000461467-8640
