Based on this podcast, we can define a scenario as follows:
* Universe: ''U'' = {''LittleRedRidingHood'', ''Grandmother'', ''Wolf''}<br />
* Properties:
:: ''RedHood'' = { < ''x''> | ''x'' wears a read hood } = { <''LittleRedRidingHood''> }
:: ''Female'' = { <''x''> | ''x'' is female } = { <''LittleRedRidingHood''>, <''Grandmother''> }
:: ''BigMouth'' = { <''x''> | ''x'' has a big mouth } = { <''Wolf''> }
:: ''LiveInForest'' = { < ''x''> | ''x'' lives in the forest } = { <''Grandmother''>, <''Wolf''>}
* Relations:
:: ''GrandChildOf'' = { <''x'',''y''> | ''x'' is ''y'' 's grandchild } = { <''LittleRedRidingHood'',''Grandmother'' > }
:: ''AfternoonSnackOf'' = { <''x'',''y''> | ''x'' is ''y'' 's afternoon snack } = { <''LittleRedRidingHood'',''Wolf'' > }
From this scenario, we can build a model ''M'' = < ''U'', I >
* Universe: ''U'' = {''LittleRedRidingHood'', ''Grandmother'', ''Wolf''}
* Name symbols: '''NAME''' = {'''little-red-riding-hood'''}<br>Note: In our model, only one individual has a name.
* Predicate symbols: '''PREDICATE''' = {'''red-hood1''', '''female1''', '''big-mouth''', '''live-in-forest1''', '''grand-child-of2''', '''afternoon-snack-of2'''}

Meeting 2

Models

The following material is an adapted form of material created by student participants of the project e-Learning Resources for Semantics (e-LRS). Involved participants: Lisa, Marthe, Elisabeth, Isabelle.

Watch a short podcast what first-order models look like.

Based on this podcast, we can define a scenario as follows:

  • Universe: U = {LittleRedRidingHood, Grandmother, Wolf}
  • Properties:
RedHood = { < x> | x wears a read hood } = { <LittleRedRidingHood> }
Female = { <x> | x is female } = { <LittleRedRidingHood>, <Grandmother> }
BigMouth = { <x> | x has a big mouth } = { <Wolf> }
LiveInForest = { < x> | x lives in the forest } = { <Grandmother>, <Wolf>}
  • Relations:
GrandChildOf = { <x,y> | x is y 's grandchild } = { <LittleRedRidingHood,Grandmother > }
AfternoonSnackOf = { <x,y> | x is y 's afternoon snack } = { <LittleRedRidingHood,Wolf > }

From this scenario, we can build a model M = < U, I >

  • Universe: U = {LittleRedRidingHood, Grandmother, Wolf}
  • Name symbols: NAME = {little-red-riding-hood}
    Note: In our model, only one individual has a name.
  • Predicate symbols: PREDICATE = {red-hood1, female1, big-mouth, live-in-forest1, grand-child-of2, afternoon-snack-of2}
  • Interpretation function I:
  • for name symbols: I(little-red-riding-hood) = LittleRedRidingHood
  • for predicate symbols:
I(red-hood1) = RedHood = { < x> | x wears a read hood } = { <LittleRedRidingHood> }
I(female) = Female = { <x> | x is female } = { <LittleRedRidingHood>, <Grandmother> }
I(big-mouth1) = BigMouth = { <x> | x has a big mouth } = { <Wolf> }
I(live-in-forest1) = LiveInForest = { < x> | x lives in the forest } = { <Grandmother>, <Wolf>}
I(grand-child-of2) = GrandChildOf = { <x,y> | x is y 's grandchild } = { <LittleRedRidingHood,Grandmother > }
I(afternoon-snack-of2) = AfternoonSnackOf = { <x,y> | x is y 's afternoon snack } = { <LittleRedRidingHood,Wolf > }
