Abstract. We present a novel ensemble of six methods for improving the efficiency of chart realization. The methods are couched in the framework of Combinatory Categorial Grammar (...
Abstract. We present a new approach to the generation of referring expressions containing attributive, type and relational properties combined by conjunctions, disjunctions and neg...
Abstract. Discourse anaphora other than definite NPs have not received much attention in generation. This paper proposes a strategy for generating the additive particle also, a no...
Abstract. Although humans are the ultimate “natural language generators”, the area of psycholinguistic modeling has been somewhat underrepresented in recent approaches to Natur...
This paper describes an implemented model of context-based incremental tactical generation within the Dynamic Syntax framework [1] which directly reflects dialogue phenomena such ...
Ambiguity in the output is a concern for NLG in general. This paper considers the case of structural ambiguity in spoken language generation. We present an algorithm which inserts ...
This paper presents a novel corpus-based methodology for comparing metrics of coherence with respect to their potential usefulness for text structuring. Different definitions of ...

Past work of generating referring expressions mainly utilized attributes of objects and binary relations between objects to distinguish the referent from other objects. However, su...
Abstract. We describe the recording and annotation of a corpus of roleplaying dialogues in the domain of the COMIC multimodal dialogue system. We give some generalisations about th...
The generative summarization of textual stories has been one of the goals of computational narratology since attempts at full semantic NLU in the ’70s. Our NLP group has recently...
