15. A computer-implemented method of inferring an environment from a sentence input to a text-to-scene conversion system, the method comprising: receiving a sentence as input text at a text-to-scene conversion system; constructing an arbitrary three-dimensional scene from the input text without using previously stored images; identifying a verb-argument tuple in the sentence, the sentence comprising at least the verb-argument tuple and a subject of an action included in the verb-argument tuple; identifying an equivalent verb-argument tuple in a database, the database comprising a plurality of verb-argument tuples and at least one environmental term associated with each of the plurality of verb-argument tuples; and rendering an environment via the text-to-scene conversion system, within which to place the subject, according to the environmental term associated with the equivalent verb-argument tuple.
