{ "pk": 30814, "title": "Expectation Verification: A Mechanism for the Generation of Meta Comments", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Meta Comments, such as \"however,\" \"as I have stated before\" and \"if you pardon the expression,\" are pervasive in human discourse. In this paper, we present a predictive mechanism for the generation of Meta Comments based on the tenet that they signal a change in the status of beliefs and expectations a listener is conjectured to possess. In particular, our mechanism anticipates a listener's expectations by activating prescribed inferences on the state of the discourse. It is being implemented in a system called FIGMENT II which generates commentaries on the solution of algebraic equations.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Paper Presentations", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/92z2h0h0", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Ingrid", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Zukerman", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Monash University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1989-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/30814/galley/20663/download/" } ] }
