## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Planning Text for Advisory Dialogues: Capturing Intentional and Rhetorical Information](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/moore-1993-planning-text-advisory-dialogues-capturing/)** *(1993 · 382 citations)* The paper addresses a gap in explanation generation for advisory dialogue systems: to handle follow-up questions such as "Why?" or "What's call-by-value?", a system must understand what its own earlier explanations were meant to achieve.
2. **[A Problem for RST: The Need for Multi-Level Discourse Analysis](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/moore-1992-problem-rst-need-multi-level/)** *(1992 · 280 citations)* Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) is widely used to structure multi-sentence output in natural language generation and in descriptive discourse work.
3. **[Toward a Synthesis of Two Accounts of Discourse Structure](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/moser-1996-synthesis-two-accounts-discourse-structure/)** *(1996 · 117 citations)* Research on computational discourse models has long been divided into two camps. One relies on domain-independent rhetorical relations, led by RST (Mann and Thompson 1988). The other relies on speaker intentions, led by G&S (Grosz and Sidner 1986). This short theoretical article argues that the two camps agree far…
4. **[Describing Complex Charts in Natural Language: A Caption Generation System](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mittal-1998-describing-complex-charts-natural-language/)** *(1998 · 109 citations)* Automatic graphics systems can produce novel charts that combine many data attributes. Such charts are often hard to read without an explanation, so these systems either stick to familiar chart types or risk confusing users. Mittal, Moore, Carenini and Roth address this by building a system that writes explanatory…
5. **[Implications for Generating Clarification Requests in Task-Oriented Dialogues](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/rieser-2005-implications-generating-clarification-requests-task/)** *(2005 · 73 citations)* The paper asks how a spoken dialogue system should formulate clarification requests (CRs) so that they show what went wrong in understanding.
6. **[Generating Tailored, Comparative Descriptions with Contextually Appropriate Intonation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/white-2010-generating-tailored-comparative-descriptions-contextually/)** *(2010 · 38 citations)* Spoken dialogue systems usually list every matching option in turn. In the DARPA Communicator evaluation, this presentation stage was the biggest contributor to dialogue length, and it also strains users' memory. The authors present FLIGHTS, a flight-information generator where the user's preferences guide every step…
7. **[Annotating Participant Reference in English Spoken Conversation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/niekrasz-2010-annotating-participant-reference-english-spoken/)** *(2010 · 2 citations)* In multi-party talk, references to the people in the conversation ( I , you , we , first names) are among the most frequent words.
