(In Section 5 we will discuss how such a threshold may be computed.)
the meaning of 'tall' involves a classifier for tallness, κ tall , of the following type: We define this classifier as a one-input perceptron that compares the perceived height h of an individual x to the relevant threshold θ determined by a comparison class c. if θ : type → R + and r : t ctxt , then: Simplifying somewhat, we can represent the meaning of 'tall', tall, as a record specifying the type of context (t ctxt ) where an utterance of 'tall' can be made, the parameter of the tallness classifier (the threshold θ), and a function f which is applied to the context to produce the content of 'tall'.
