How to Evaluate Controlled Natural Languages

نویسنده

  • Tobias Kuhn
چکیده

This paper presents a general framework how controlled natural languages can be evaluated and compared on the basis of user experiments. The subjects are asked to classify given statements (in the language to be tested) as either true or false with respect to a certain situation that is shown in a graphical notation called “ontographs”. A first experiment has been conducted that applies this framework to the language Attempto Controlled English (ACE).

Controlled Natural Languages for Knowledge Representation

This paper presents a survey of research in controlled natural languages that can be used as high-level knowledge representation languages. Over the past 10 years or so, a number of machine-oriented controlled natural languages have emerged that can be used as high-level interface languages to various kinds of knowledge systems. These languages are relevant to the area of computational linguist...

Controlled Languages as the Basis for Multilingual Catalogues on the WWW

This paper describes how to use controlled languages (CLs) to build multilingual sales catalogue services on the WWW. CLs are human languages restricted to specific domains and with limited vocabulary and restricted syntax. Control aims to minimise ambiguities in the texts. This enables practical and costeffective solutions, e.g., for machine translation and text mining, which both are extremel...

Temporal Action Language (TAL): A Controlled Language for Consistency Checking of Natural Language Temporal Requirements

We introduce Temporal Action Language (TAL). We design TAL as a key component of our approach that aims to semi-automate the process of consistency checking of natural language temporal requirements. Analysts can use TAL to express temporal requirements precisely and unambiguously. We describe the syntax and semantics of TAL and illustrate how to use TAL to represent temporal requirements.

Controlled English for Reasoning on the Semantic Web

The existing Semantic Web languages have a very technical focus and fail to provide good usability for users with no background in formal methods. We argue that controlled natural languages like Attempto Controlled English (ACE) can solve this problem. ACE is a subset of English that can be translated into various logic based languages, among them the Semantic Web standards OWL and SWRL. ACE is...

Controlled Translation

This paper introduces the concept of controlled translation as the new working environment for the professional translator, and advances the idea that a new teaching scenario should emerge to cater for the needs of this controlled environment. In this context, we present how such scenario can be tailor-made to answer the needs of the translation industry. Namely, we concentrate on the introduct...
