Compositionality Decomposed: How do Neural Networks Generalise? (2019, background): “Without these components, the principle of compositionality is formally vacuous (Janssen, 1983; Zadrozny, 1994), because also trivial and intuitively non-compositional solutions that cast every expression as one part and assign it a meaning as a whole do not formally violate the principle of composi”
The Principle of Semantic Compositionality (1994, background): “this claim. Such a proof has been given by Janssen (1983) and this moral was drawn from it by”
Communication and Strong Compositionality (2003, unknown): “Montague 1970, Janssen 1984, 1997, Hendrix 2001.”
Presupposition and Assertion in Dynamic Semantics (2001, methodology): “DMG and LoC utilise a solution suggested by Janssen (1984), which is to assume a basic type of states, and 168 / Chapter 7.”
Semantics and the electrophysiology of meaning: Tense, aspect, event structure (2004, background): “It is often said that the principle of compositionality is formally vacuous: any grammar can be given a compositional semantics [102, 224, 109, 222], which implies the principle is also empirically vacuous: if a compositional treatment of any linguistic structure can be given, then compositionality ”
