Generation from Lexical Conceptual Structures

Abstract

This paper describes a system for generating natural language sentences from an interlingual representation, Lexical Conceptual Structure (LCS). This system has been developed as part of a Chinese-English Machine Translation system, however, it promises to be useful for many other MT language pairs. The generation system has also been used in Cross-Language information retrieval research. Cross-referenced as UMIACS-TR-2001-61
