Genesis-ii: a Versatile System for Language Generation in Conversational System Applications1

چکیده
Language generation is a fundamental component of dialogue systems. Over the past year, we have developed a new generation module for conversational systems developed at MIT using the GALAXY architecture. Our generator, which we call GENESISII, resolves many of the shortcomings of its predecessor, GENESIS. GENESIS-II makes it substantially easier for users to specify generation, and the generation output is often of a higher quality. In particular, GENESIS-II has improved the ease and quality of generation in foreign languages (Japanese, Chinese, Spanish) and non-traditional languages (SQL, HTML, speech waveforms). In this paper, we focus on the more advanced features of our system.

متن کاملFormal and natural language generation in the Mercury conversational system
This paper describes the generation component of our MERCURY flight reservation conversational system. Generation makes use of the GENESIS-II generation server, which represents a significant redesign from its predecessor, GENESIS. While the main focus is on response generation, we also discuss a variety of other generation needs that are fulfilled by GENESIS-II. These include a paraphrase of t...

متن کاملLanguageLand: A Multimodal Conversational Spoken Language Learning System
LanguageLand is a multimodal conversational spoken language learning system whose purpose is to help native English users learn Mandarin Chinese. The system is centered on a game that involves navigation on a simulated map. It consists of an edit and play mode. In edit mode, users can set up the street map with whichever objects (such as a house, a church, a policeman) they see in the toolbar. ...
متن کاملAutomatic generation of conversational utterances and narrative for Augmentative and Alternative Communication: a prototype system
We detail the design, development and evaluation of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) software which encourages rapid conversational interaction. The system uses Natural Language Generation (NLG) technology to automatically generate conversational utterances from a domain knowledge base modelled from content suggested by a small AAC user group. Findings from this work are present...
