1. **[Semantic-Head-Driven Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/shieber-1990-semantic-head-driven-generation/)** *(1990 · 205 citations)* The paper addresses tactical generation: producing a sentence from a logical-form encoding of its meaning using unification-based or logic grammars, such as DCG, PATR-II and HPSG-style grammars.
2. **[An Integrated Framework for Semantic and Pragmatic Interpretation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/pollack-1988-integrated-framework-semantic-pragmatic-interpretation/)** *(1988 · 37 citations)* Purely compositional semantics struggles because an utterance's meaning depends on context as well as syntax.
