Explanation and Interaction: The Computer Generation of Explanatory Dialogues

摘要: "Explanation and Interaction" describes the problems issues involved in generating interactive user-sensitive explanations. It presents a particular computational system that generates tutorial, explanations of how simple electronic circuits work. However, approaches ideas book can be applied to wide range computer applications where complex are provided, such as documentation, advisory expert systems. The approach presented is based on an analysis human explanatory discourse, techniques for text planning, dialogue management user modelling developed used system. Cawsey detail modelling, enough practical systems may ideas. Because addresses single system, it appropriate general introduction discourse processing user-adapted interaction.
