Novice-Friendly Natural Language Generation Template Authoring Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Natural Language Generation (NLG) systems can make data accessible in an easily digestible textual form; but using such systems requires sophisticated linguistic and sometimes even programming knowledge. We have designed and implemented an environment for creating and modifying NLG templates that requires no programming knowledge, and can operate with a minimum of linguistic knowledge. It allows specifying templates with any number of variables and dependencies between them. It internally uses SimpleNLG to provide the linguistic background knowledge. We test the performance of our system in the context of an interactive simulation game.

On Designing Controlled Natural Languages for Semantic Annotation
Manual semantic annotation is a complex and arduous task both time-consuming and costly often requiring specialist annotators. (Semi)-automatic annotation tools attempt to ease this process by detecting instances of classes within text and relationships between classes, however their usage often requires knowledge of Natural Language Processing(NLP) and/or formal ontological descriptions. This ...

A growing issue in the development of realistic and entertaining interactive games is the need for mechanisms that support ongoing natural language conversation between human players and artificial non-player characters. Unfortunately, many methods for implementing natural language generation (NLG) induce a significant burden on the author, do not scale well, or require specialized linguistic k...
متن کاملRoundTrip Ontology Authoring
Controlled Language (CL) for Ontology Editing tools offer an attractive alternative to naive users, wishing to create Ontologies. However despite the benefits of CLs, users are still required to learn the correct syntactic structures in order to use the Controlled Language properly. Referring to CL vocubulary/syntax rules can be time consuming, annoying and in certain cases may prevent uptake o...
متن کاملJYAG & IDEY: A Template-Based Generator and Its Authoring Tool
JYAG (Java 2.0 Platform YAG) is the Java implementation of a real-time, general-purpose, template-based generation system (YAG, Yet Another Generator) (Channarukul 1999; McRoy, Channarukul, & Ali 2000). JYAG enables interactive applications to adapt natural language output to the interactive context without requiring developers to write all possible output strings ahead of time or to embed exte...
متن کاملAn authoring tool for preparing online theorems and proofs with a dynamic geometry environment
With advanced technologies of natural language processing, interactions between computer and human can be very user-friendly. Recently, humans can use their language to communicate to systems of computer-assisted learning. In this paper, an authoring tool has been proposed to help students learn geometry theorems and proofs. This tool is based on Java Sketchpad and regular expression template. ...
