This repository contains an implementation of some core operations from Bradley Franks' 1995 paper "Sense Generation" using Prolog. It serves to showcase how modern Prolog features can make it easy to implement cognitive-linguistic models.

The motivation and underlying theory are further discussed in this blogpost.

The code was tested on Scryer-Prolog, but should work with minor changes on other implementations as long as they have versions of the libraries I used. If you want to try it out and have any problems, feel free to message me about it.
