| Description | The paper deals with a special type of automatic reasoning - a process of inference of new facts from a knowledge base. The presented type is not based on large embracive common-sense knowledge-base and wide-ranging ontology. Rather, it takes advantage of universal lexical database in the form of semantic network and also universal hypotheses that concern conversational implicatures. |
