Dorota Leszczyńska-Jasion: CPC e-scenarios (Prolog)
DOWNLOAD [ZIP archive, 1KB]
The program generates atomic e-scenarios [read more about e-scenarios] for yes-no questions of the form ?{A, not A}, where A is a formula of the language of Classical Propositional Logic. The program is written in Prolog.
After you run the program and write „start.” an instruction will occur.

The idea of cooperative question-responses based on question dependency is described in papers.

local_user.pl is a Prolog implementation of the algorithm of cooperative responding which works on a toy example of a database. There are several facts concerning users (‚usr/1’ predicate), their friends (‚friend/2’ predicate) and living places (‚live/2’ predicate) and some rules defining the concept of a local user (‚locusr/1’ predicate). There is also a database of 9 e-scenarios concerning questions about being a user or questions about being a local user. Questions are written in the following form:
?usr(Name)
?locusr(Name)
The Name may be one of: a, b, c, d, e, f, g
In order to obtain a cooperative question-response, one has to ask Prolog:
analyse(Question).
e.g.:
analyse(?live(a,p)).
ESSs-DB

Erotetic Search Scenarios Database Application (ESSs-DB) is a program meant for searching and analysis of the erotetic search scenario database. To run ESSs-DB the user simply needs to double click ESSs-DB.jar file and wait a few seconds for the application to connect to the MySQL database which holds a set of data concerning a collection of stored erotetic search scenarios. After clicking on the file a loading screen should appear to indicate that the application is initializing. To obtain help consult the documentation available in the program directory.

This is a program meant for processing and drawing Erotetic Search Scenarios. The program can be run using scripts provided for either Linux OS or Windows OS. It can be also executed from terminal by issuing a command: java -jar CESS.jar. For the program to work correctly the structure of the main directory has to be preserved. To obtain help consult the documentation available in the program directory.

ESS Library and Data
This archive contains:
a) collections of the evaluated erotetic search scenarios: „TeXMain”,”TeXRemovedIC”, „TeXReplacedIC”. Each LaTeX file in each folder contains a diagram of an erotetic search scenario and additional evaluation information,
b) 6 files with the results of quantitative analyses (including the distributions of the criteria values and the outcome of multi-criteria analyses): „quantitative-data-original.txt”, „quantitative-data-original-without-purity.txt”, „quantitative-data-removedIC.txt”, „quantitative-data-removedIC-without-purity.txt”, „quantitative-data-replacedIC.txt”, „quantitative-data-replacedIC-without-purity.txt”,
c) a PDF file („commentary.pdf”) containing a commentary on the results obtained from the experiments.Please read the [PDF] file to get a clarification of the erotetic search scenarios generation procedure and about the results available in the other files. Also see the readme file to get an explanation of the used naming notation.

Erotetic Reasoning Corpus
Erotetic Reasoning Corpus (ERC) constitutes a data set for research on natural question processing. Intuitively, we are dealing with question processing in a situation when a question is not followed by an answer but with a new question or a strategy of reducing it into auxiliary questions. Usually, such a situation takes place when an agent wants to solve a certain problem (expressed in a form of an initial question) but is not able to reach the solution using his/her own information resources. Thus new data, collected via questioning is necessary.
The corpus consists of the language data collected in the previous studies on the question processing phenomenon. The outcomes of three research projects are employed here. These are: Erotetic Reasoning Test, QuestGen and Mind Maze.
