This project focuses on robust parsing of natural language input (in limited domains). The research addresses the problems of portability, reliability, and habitability. It outlines the development of a set of interactive tools which provide, to both the linguist and the end-user, an accurate set of domain-specific co-occurrence patterns. This set of tools will partly automate the creation of the Domain Information Schema (DIS), namely the domain-specific information required for processing a given domain. The same set of tools, provided with a different interface for the end-user, will be used to support interactive text entry.
