....rule. Different sentences can be constructed from the template by filling in these gaps conditionally based on available data. In more sophisticated systems, text can be constructed from templates recursively, and the system can choose which templates to expand condi tionally based on the context [34]. Reiter [25, 26] offers a good introduction to the motivation and functionality of templates in applied systems for language interaction; Theune [32] specifically considers template generation in the context of spoken dialogue agents. A coding based animation system makes it possible to extend ....

.... an NLU module which translates the user s typed English input to a logical form. This is built using the CARMEL NLU toolkit [Ros00] which includes a robust parser and a wide coverage grammar. a generation module which synthesises English text from logical forms, implemented in Exemplars [WC98] and the Apache Xalan XSLT stylesheet processors. a dialogue manager developed using the TRINDIKIT dialogue system shell [LT00] This module maintains the system s blackboard, including the dialogue history, and encodes rules of conversation (e.g. listeners are obliged to address questions) ....

....strings. An example is the IDAS system (Reiter Mellish, 1993) which incorporates those portions of text that are difficult to generate linguistically as canned text in the output. Other recent hybrid generation systems are described in Carenini et al. 1994) Geldof Van de Velde (1997) White Caldwell (1998),Busemann Horacek (1998) and Reiter (1999) The language generation module (LGM) developed at IPO also employs a hybrid technique, using for instance well established rules for the use of anaphors, the generation of referring expressions, and prosody computation, but performing linguistic ....

....representation of the context) and large linguistic resources (grammars and lexica) are necessary, which leads to a high initial overhead. To increase the flexibility of the generated texts, methods from linguistically motivated generation should be combined with the template based approach (see [38] and [4] There are di#erent representation formalisms for describing the text structure, like static schema ( 17] or the functionaloriented rhetorical structure theory ( 16] Some text planning techniques (see for example [19] create an explicit representation of the text structure which ....
