Conversational Narrative Interfaces for Sensemaking

This PhD thesis aims at studying the generation of dialogues within the context of narratives based on the theory of inferential pragmatics. When referring to inferential pragmatics, we consider the non-semantic elements of the meaning of statements that can be inferred from its implications. Our goal is to generate dialogue statements based on a model that integrates pragmatic context knowledge. This model aims to generate misunderstandings arising within a dialogue between a human user and a virtual agent, focusing on contextual inconsistencies.
