Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology can be used process natural language statements to facilitate the automated generation of narratives about data sets that achieve a desired communication goal without any need for a user to directly author computer code. This AI technology permits NLG systems to determine the appropriate content for inclusion in the narrative in a manner that will satisfy the desired communication goal.
