'''Computational semantics''' is the study of how to automate the process of constructing and reasoning with [[semantics|meaning representations]] of [[natural language]] expressions. Some traditional topics of interest are: [[semantic analysis (linguistics)|construction of meaning representationsrepresentation]]s, semantic [[underspecification]], [[anaphora (linguistics)|anaphora]] resolution, [[presupposition]] projection, and [[quantifier]] scope resolution. Computational semantics has points of contact with the areas of [[lexical semantics]] ([[word sense disambiguation]] and [[semantic role labellinglabeling]]), discourse semantics, [[formal semantics]], [[knowledge representation]] and [[automated reasoning]]. Since 1999 there is an ACL ([[Association for Computational Linguistics]]) special interest group on computational semantics [http://www.aclwebsigsem.org/sigsem SIGSEM].
