Using Paradigm Tables to Generate New Utterances Similar to those Existing in Linguistic Resources

Yves Lepage, Guilhem Peralta


Abstract
We inspect the possibility of creating new linguistic utterances (small sentences) similar to those already present in an existing linguistic resource. Using paradigm tables ensures that the new generated sentences resemble previous data, while being of course different. We report an experiment in which 1,201 new correct sentences were generated starting from only 22 seed sentences.
