A central problem of natural language generation is that of ‘expressibility’. Meteer presents a solution which uses a level of representation called the Text Structure, an intermediate between the representation of world and the language.

Marie Meteer is Adjunct Professor at Brandeis University, USA, and an independent consultant.
