Abstract

NLG techniques are disclosed that apply computer technology to sentence data for performing entity referencing. For example, a processor can parse sentence data in a defined window of sentence data into a list of entity terms and a plurality of classifications associated with the listed entity terms. A processor can also compute a plurality of context saliency scores for a plurality of the listed entity terms based on the classifications associated with the listed entity terms. For new sentence data that refers to an entity term from the entity term list, a processor can select a referring term for referencing that entity term from a list of candidate referring terms based on the context saliency scores for the entity terms. A processor can then form the new sentence data such that the new sentence data includes the selected referring term to refer to the at least one entity term.
