Topics: Discourse analysis 1
Papers
- Rhetorical Structure Theory: Toward a functional theory of text organization (1988)
Not read: this card is written from what is reliably known about the paper, and every idea is marked to check against the text. - Computer Generation of Multiparagraph English Text (1981)
The paper argues that multi-sentence text should not be produced by cutting a knowledge base into sentence-sized pieces (the "Partitioning" paradigm), because real knowledge bases have no boundary marks and no adjacency for that.
