From Plain English to Controlled English
نویسندگان
چکیده
We outline an approach for transferring specifications and technical documents written in plain English into controlled English. In a first step, we analyse the sentences of the source documents and (partially) translate them into a set of logical forms. In the second step, we send the logical forms to a surface-form generation module that plans how the sentences of the controlled language should be composed and how the surface string should be realised. The result is an explicit interpretation of the source document in controlled English that can be refined in a stepwise manner by the authors until it corresponds to their intended interpretation.
