This paper describes construction of distributed semantic representations (DSRs) which have many symbol-like properties while retaining the nice features of PDP (Parallel Distributed Processing) representations. DSRs are formed by encoding structured objects as triples in auto-associative recurrent PDP networks. DYNASTY is a distributed connectionist model of story paraphraser, which reads script/goal-based stories and generates full inference chains describing the stories.
