Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a trial method to analyze existence of objects from text. Existence explicit in sentences is understood by valency patterns with existence attributes. Existence implicit in sentences is understood by existence attributes and rules. The understood existence is described in fuzzy set. A belief lattice structure whose vertexes contain the fuzzy set captures the change of existence while reading the text. The ambiguity of the belief is solved by the path search based on heuristics and fuzzy membership. As the results of the confirmation of our method, we introduce a simple example of the existence analysis.
