Non-sentential utterances (NSUs) are utterances that lack a complete sentential form but whose meaning can be inferred from the dialogue context, such as “OK”, “where?”, “probably at his apartment”. The interpretation of non-sentential utterances is an important problem in computational linguistics since they constitute a frequent phenomena in dialogue and they are intrinsically context-depende...

The interpretation of non-sentential utterances in dialogue

We present an overview of a comprehensive formal theory of the interpretation of sentential fragments, which has as components an empirically validated taxonomy, an analysis of the syntax and compositional semantics of fragments, and a formalisation of their contextual interpretation. We also briefly describe an implementation of this theory, and quantify the potential practical use of handling...
