Abstract

The paper deals with generation of natural language text in a dialog system. The approach is based on principles underlying the dialog system TARLUS under development at Tartu State University. The main problems concerned are the architecture of a dialog system and its knowledge base. Much attention is devoted to problems which arise in answering the user queries - the problems of planning an answer, the non-linguistic and linguistic phases of generating an answer.
