A linguistic and navigational knowledge approach to text navigation
Javier A. Couto, Jean-Luc Minel · 2008
We present an approach to text navigation conceived as a cognitive process exploiting linguistic information present in texts. We claim that the navigational knowledge in-volved in this process can be modeled in a declarative way with the Sextant language. Since Sextant refers exhaustively to specific linguistic phenomena, we have defined a customized text representation. These dif-ferent components are implemented in the text navigation system NaviTexte. Two ap-plications of NaviTexte are described. 1
