TENSOR
|
|
| |
In languages such as English
and French, the tense of the subject (past, present and future) as well as the
perspective are intertwined within the sentence.
|
|
| |
Similarly, certain words in modern
languages are used as kinds of "pivot points:, from which to compare one
concept with another. |
|
| |
In UCADIA, the object that perform the
identification of tense, as well as pivot points are called
"tensors". |
