Natural Language Communication with Machines: An Ongoing Goal.

Abstract

This report is concerned with issues of man-machine interaction in decision support system for high-level decision makers. It discusses components that such systems should have, what the current state of the art is with respect to such systems, and how current research in artificial intelligence is leading toward solving the remaining problems. Topics covered include natural language syntax and semantics, models of the beliefs and goals of the user, and knowledge-based helpful systems. (Author)
