Abstract:

The paper addresses the role of problem solving plans in the interpretation of natural language dialogues.

It introduces a library of actions which describes in a declarative way the different steps made in the process of planning and executing an action. The library is used to trace the activity of a speaker: the recognition of her plans and goals is driven by the problem solving library, which specifies how domain and linguistic actions have been connected to each other.
