Description

Excerpted from the website description:

WYSIWYM arose from two NLG projects (DRAFTER and GIST) undertaken in the early 1990s at University of Brighton. In these projects we needed a method for encoding the semantic content of instructional materials in a logical formalism, from which equivalent texts could be generated in several natural languages. After trying various graphical methods, we came up with the idea of using NLG as a means of obtaining its own input. Instead of manipulating an unfamiliar graphical presentation such as an entity-relationship diagram, the author performs logically equivalent operations by direct manipulation of a 'feedback text' generated by the system. More recently, we started to generalize this approach to what we call Conceptual Authoring.
