| "text": "As pointed out in [Maier and Hovy, '91] three types of relations can be distinguished: ideational, interpersonal and textual relations. Descriptive texts can be characterized by the preferred use of ideational relations while interpersonal relations occur in genres with a high degree of reader involvement (advertisements, personal letters, etc.) . Textual relations are unspecific with respect to text types although sul)sets of the textual relations might be preferal)ly used for some genres ( [Maier '93] ). Various types of communicative goals are responsible for the use of either ideational or interpersonal relations -in [Maier and Hovy, '91] called \"ideational\" and \"interpersonal\" goals, respectively. This labeling does not refer to the nature of the comnmnicative goals; it rather refers to the type of text to be generated and the type of relations to be used. Instead, communicative goals have to be considered an interpersonal device, since they deal with the intentions to be achieved by means of the discourse. In Systemic Functional Linguistics this is exactly what the interperson~d meta.filnction is about.", | |

For example, using rhetorical relations such as background and elaboration, Hovy's (1988) system constructs a rhetorical structure over a given set of propositions (See Figure la) . Moore's (1989) system also constructs a rhetorical structure, however, the leafnodes of the resulting tree are illocutionary acts (e.g., inform) with associated propositions. While we agree that text contains relations between parts, we also concur with the position held by Suthers (1991) and others that rhetorical relations, in their current form, conflate a number of issues including intention, structure, linear precedence, and epistemological distinctions. Hovy (1990) details problems with R,ST approaches to paragraph planning, including algorithnfic problems and, more seriously, problems with the theory and representation of coherence relations.", | |

| "text": "In contrast to RST-based planners but similar to rhetorical schema based generators, our explanation planning architecture uses \"rhetorical predicates\" (e.g., attribution, evidence, enablement) to abstractly characterize epistemological content and relations in tile underlying knowledge base. As in MeKeown (1982) , some of these predicates indicate local relations (e.g., illustration) and have associated cue words (e.g., \"for example\") or associated semantic actions (e.g., \"contains,\" \"enables\"). Ilowever, other predicates, such as attribution or definitiou, have no marked relation to their surrounding text (only the weak notion of elaboration). In our attempts to geuerate the range of text l.ypes ranging from narration to argumeut, we have found tile need to develop a correspondingly broad range of rhetorical predicates, including logical-definition, synonymic-definition, constituency, cb~ssification, evidence, motivation, etc. We use these same rhetorical predicates to abstractly mark the epistemological content of speech acts (e.g., request or inform). All example action in our system might be II~FORX(#<systora>, #<usor-023>, logical-do:finition(#<ForrarJ.-Testarossa>)) which says \"have tile system inform user-023 of the logical definition of tile object, #<Ferrar:i.-Testarossa>,\" which might eventuaily result in the utterance \"A Ferrari Testarossa is a fast, sleek Italian sports car\". In order to retrieve the content for a \"logical definition\" predicate, we must not only look up the genus of the entity, but also calculate its differentia, or distinguishing characteristics (Maybury, 1990) . Thus, the relation between rhetorical predicates and semantic relations in the underlying knowledge base is not a simple one-to-one mapping; in some cases the content must be calculated. Moreover, content may be modulated by context or by a user model (e.g., choosing the perspective from which to view an object., if it has multiple superordinates (McCoy, 1985) ).", | |

| "text": "Our architecture actually distinguishes between illocutionary acts (e.g., inform, request) and surface speech/locutionary acts (e.g., assert,, command, suggest) which have associated surface forms (e.g., declarative imperative, interrogative mood). In our architecture, the organization and structure of illocutionary speech acts such as the above inform action is accomplished by more abstract rhetorical acts (e.g., describe, compare, argue). Rhetorical acts characterize the communicative action performed by one or more utterances, and correspond to the text types such as description, narration, and exposition. Because our focus has been on formalizing the communicative actions that underlie texts, we have worked toward a unified view of rhetorical and speech acts. Therefore, our approach can be seen as an extension of theoretical work which views language as purposeful behavior (Austin, 1962; Searle, 1969) and of computational implementations of speech acts (Cohen, 1978; Allen, 1979; Appelt, 1982) . As we dicuss below, we have also investigated using the notio, of rhetorical acts to characterize both linguistic and non-linguistic acts, resulting, for example, in mixed text and graphics.", | |

These text types form the basis of explanations which convey different propositional content (e.g., entities and relations versus events and states), have particular intended effects on the addressee's knowledge, beliefs, and desires, and are compositional (e.g., narration can invoke description). In the extended position paper wc contrast two architectures for explanation planning: rhetorical structuring of propositions versus comnmnicative act-based explanation planning. In our work we consider the structure of plan operators, including issues of constraints, preconditions, effects, and decomposition, and have discussed (Maybury, 1992b) how current representations might be extended, and also consider the applicability to plan inultimedia exldanations and discourse. After considering issues concerning plans and focus models, we conclude hy indicating that current plan-based architectures suffer from a number of fundamental architectural deficiencies that stem froln the current state of the art in planning techniques. This situation is exacerbated by the current lack of understanding of the nature of and relationshiip among attention, intensions and rhetorical relations.", | |
