Abstract :
The authors describe a contextual machine translation system from Japanese documents to English skeleton expressions. In this system, an analyzer performs syntax, semantic, anaphoral, and coherent analyses to obtain a contextual representation concerning the input text. A generator produces conversationally the translation results of the skeleton, detail, and diagrammatic forms. Semantic and contextual analysers based on world knowledge are presented for the system.<>
