Document structure
R Power, D Scott, N Bouayad-Agha - Computational Linguistics, 2003 - direct.mit.edu
We argue the case for abstract document structure as a separate descriptive level in the
analysis and generation of written texts. The purpose of this representation is to mediate …

Can neural generators for dialogue learn sentence planning and discourse structuring?
Responses in task-oriented dialogue systems often realize multiple propositions whose
ultimate form depends on the use of sentence planning and discourse structuring …
