Abstract

The paper discusses the use of domain ontologies encoded with conceptual graphs in two recent works in Artificial Intelligence in Education and Natural Language Processing: STyLE-OLM (an interactive learner modelling system that extracts extended models of the learners’ cognition) and HYLITE+ (a natural language generation system that generates adaptive Web pages based on a learner model).
