Reversibility and Re-usability of Resources in NLG and Natural Language Dialog Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Reversibility is a key to efficient and maintainable NLG systems. In this paper, we present a formal definition of reversible NLG systems and develop a classification of existing natural language dialog systems in this framework.

HYPERBUG: A Scalable Natural Language Generation Approach
A scalable natural language generation (NLG) system called HYPERBUG 1 embedded in an agent-based, multimodal dialog system is presented. To motivate this presentation, several scenarios (including a domain shift) are identified where scalability in dialog systems is really needed, and NLG is argued to be one way of easing this desired scalability. Therefore the novel approach to hybrid NLG in t...
متن کاملA Flexible Approach to Natural Language Generation for Disabled Children
Natural Language Generation (NLG) is a way to automatically realize a correct expression in response to a communicative goal. This technology is mainly explored in the fields of machine translation, report generation, dialog system etc. In this paper we have explored the NLG technique for another novel applicationassisting disabled children to take part in conversation. The limited physical abi...
متن کاملTowards Automatic Generation of Natural Language Generation Systems
Systems that interact with the user via natural language are in their infancy. As these systems mature and become more complex, it would be desirable for a system developer if there were an automatic method for creating natural language generation components that can produce quality output efficiently. We conduct experiments that show that this goal appears to be realizable. In particular we di...
متن کامل: Stochastic Natural Language Generation 3 Natural Language Understanding Natural Language Generation Surface
We describe a corpus-based approach to natural language generation (NLG). The approach has been implemented as a component of a spoken dialog system and a series of evaluations were carried out. Our system uses n-gram language models, which have been found useful in other language technology applications, in a generative mode. It is not yet clear whether the simple n-grams can adequately model ...
متن کاملNatural Language Generation in Dialog Systems
Recent advances in Automatic Speech Recognition technology have put the goal of naturally sounding dialog systems within reach. However, the improved speech recognition has brought to light a new problem: as dialog systems understand more of what the user tells them, they need to be more sophisticated at responding to the user. The issue of system response to users has been extensively studied ...
