 Concept formation as knowledge accumulation: A computation linguistics study
Chapter 2: Concept formation: A Linguistic perspective

In the article, Concept Formation: A Linguistic Perspective, by Andy Dong focuses on the topic of the accumulation of knowledge by design team members through the exchange and negotiation of lexicalized concepts. He asserts that the principle mechanism for concept formation is through the accumulation of lexicalized concepts of knowledge stored in each designer's mind. First, the author defines the term accumulation through encoding thoughts and language performing actions. It is a data structure comprised into semantic links between the lexicalized concepts, which are each designer’s knowledge about a word that is considered and later integrated into the concepts. It is the designer's cognitive operation of connection of the lexicalized concepts, or their repetition, and their ability to abstractionize. Second, he points out another important thing that is accumulation cannot be done by one designer, because it should consist of different relations brought together that exist in the separate minds of the designers. To represent the process of accumulation the author uses lexical chains, that are based on a psycholinguistic representation of the organization of semantic concepts. It is also a helpful tool for people who study the psychology of the human thinking process, how they connect different concepts and use their context. Ultimately, what Andy Dong is trying to convey through his article is that accumulation can only be revealed through the interrelation of lexicalized concepts and their influences on subsequent lexicalized concepts.
