Abstract:
In a Spoken Dialog System, the Spoken Language Understanding component is able to recognize words that were previously included in its grammar. The development of a grammar is a very time-consuming and error-prone process, especially for the inflectional languages, because the developer must manually include all possible inflected forms of a word. As a consequence, the grammar definition files are long and hard to manage. This paper describes a solution for creating a semi-automatic Spoken Language grammar using a morphological generator.
