Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure use discourse analysis and other techniques to form questions and answers from text. The questions and answers can be used for different applications, including providing a virtual dialogue or generating training data for machine-learning models. For example, a dialogue application generates a discourse tree that represents text and identifies a question from a satellite elementary discourse unit of the discourse tree. The dialogue application annotates the text by inserting the generated question and labeling the satellite elementary discourse unit as an answer.
