چکیده

When communicating with animated agents in a virtual space through natural language dialogue, it is necessary to deal with vagueness of language. To deal with vagueness, in particular vagueness of spatial relation, this paper proposes a new representation of locations. The representation is designed to have bilateral character, symbolic and numeric, in order to bridge the gap between the symbolic system (language processing) and the continuous system (animation generation). Through the implementation of a prototype system, the effectiveness of the proposed representation is evaluated.
