Abstract
This paper reports our first attempt of integrating eSPERTo’s paraphrastic engine, which is based on NooJ platform, with two application scenarios: a conversational agent, and a summarization system. We briefly describe eSPERTo’s base resources, and the necessary modifications to these resources that enabled the production of paraphrases required to feed both systems. Although the improvement observed in both scenarios is not significant, we present a detailed error analysis to further improve the achieved results in future experiments.
