Generating Referential Descriptions Involving Relations by a Best-First Searching Procedure - A System Demo
نویسندگان
چکیده
Despite considerable research invested in the generation of referring expressions (GRE), there still exists no adequate generic procedure for GRE involving relations. In this paper, we present a system for GRE that combines attributes and relations, using best-first search technique. Preliminary evaluations show its effectiveness; the design enables the use of heuristics that meet linguistic preferences.

A Best-First Search Algorithm for Generating Referring Expressions
Existing algorithms for generating referential descriptions to sets of objects have serious deficits: while incremental approaches may produce ambiguous and redundant expressions, exhaustive searches are computationally expensive. Mediating between these extreme control regimes, we propose a best-first searching algorithm for uniquely identifying sets of objects. We incorporate linguistically m...
متن کاملReferential Nets With Attributes
ODe of the essential problems in natural language production and understanding is the problem of processing referential relations. In this paper I describe a model for representing and processing referential relations: referential nets with attributes. Both processes (analyzing and generating referential expressions) are controlled by attributes. There are two types of attributes, on one hand, ...
متن کاملA System for Generating Descriptions of Sets of Objects in a Rich variety
Even ambitious algorithms for the generation of referring expressions that identify sets of objects are restricted in terms of efficiency or in their expressive repertoire. In this paper, we report on a system that applies a best-first searching procedure, enhancing both its effectiveness and the variety of expressions it can generate.
متن کاملA Principled Representation Of Attributive Descriptions For Generating Integrated Text And Information Graphics Presentations
This paper describes a media-independent, compositional, plan-based approach to representing attributive descriptions for use in integrated text and graphics generation. An attributive description's main function is to convey information directly contributing to the communicative goals of a discourse, whereas a referential description's only function is to enable the audience to identify a part...
متن کاملThe iterated best response model for referential games
Language is sensitive to both semantic and pragmatic effects. To capture both effects, we model language use as a cooperative game between two players: a speaker, who generates an utterance, and a listener, who responds with an action. Specifically, we consider the task of generating spatial references to objects, wherein the listener must accurately identify an object described by the speaker....
