Abstract

See full text

Generating a natural language dialog by finding missing semantic information in a user question by comparing it to the closest question available in a question corpus. Incrementally improved question precision is targeted during each round of the natural language dialog by generating follow-up questions that clarify semantic and syntactic characteristics of the user question. The follow-up questions are derived from analysis of the user question to identify areas of improvement on the user question.
