A self-organizing lexical system in hypertext ⁄

Our understanding of the bunch of complex intellectual activities subsumed under the notion of cognition is still very limited, particularly in how knowledge is acquired from texts and what processes are responsible for it. Recent achievements in wordsemantics, conceptual structuring, and knowledge representation within the intersection of cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence and computational linguistics have shown some agreement though. It appears that cognition is (among others) responsible for, if not identifiable with, the processes according to which for a cognitive system previously unstructured surroundings may be tranformed to its perceived environment whose identifiable portions and their relatedness does not only constitute structures but also allow for their permanent revision according to the system’s capabilities.
