Abstract: The capacity for self-explanation can make computer-drafted documents more credible, assist in the retrieval and adaptation of archival documents, and permit comparison of documents at a deep level. We propose a knowledge-based model of documents that makes explicit the underlying goals that documents are intended to achieve and the stylistic conventions to which they must conform. These goals and conventions are expressed in a dual justification structure that represents the illocutionary and... (Update)
