Lakindu Gunasekara, Kaneeka Vidanage · 2019
Natural Language Generation is a sub task of the natural language processing where the machine represents texts in human understandable language. Although there have been various researches carried out for Natural Language Generation since the 1970s, there are only few available work carried out with semantic technologies compared to linguistic surface oriented structures. This paper presents the available work which combine semantic technologies with Natural Language Generation, and it identifies opportunities and drawbacks of such systems. The research is carried out on how to use semantic natural language generation with chatbots with lower computational cost and on the ability to reuse it for similar domains with less coding on natural language generation component for small scale level domains. Additionally, a new architecture for chatbot using an ontology and a new domain ontology with natural language resource bind are contributed by the researchers.
