Recognizing that the generation of natural language is a goal-
driven process, where many of the goals are pragmatic (i.e.,
interpersonal and situational) in nature, this book provides an
overview of the role of pragmatics in language generation.
Each chapter states a problem that arises in generation, develops
a pragmatics-based solution, and then describes how the solution is
implemented in PAULINE, a language generator that can produce
numerous versions of a single underlying message, depending on its
setting.
People engage in discourse every day - from writing letters and
presenting papers to simple discussions. Yet discourse is a complex
and fascinating phenomenon that is not well understood. This volume
stems from a multidisciplinary workshop in which eminent scholars
in linguistics, sociology and computational linguistics presented
various aspects of discourse. The topics treated range from
multi-party conversational interactions to deconstructing text from
various perspectives, considering topic-focus development and
discourse structure, and an empirical study of discourse
segmentation. The chapters not only describe each author's favorite
burning issue in discourse but also provide a fascinating view of
the research methodology and style of argumentation in each field.
