Abstract

This paper describes an interactive programming system that generates computer programs with Japanese linguistic expressions. The system is based on the idea ofprogramming by paraphrasing, which enables users with little knowledge on computer programming to make computer programs with linguistic expressions since paraphrasing is usually done in human everyday language communication. The case-based reasoning method is used for paraphrasing so that the system can obtain the meanings of unknown linguistic expressions used by users. The usefulness of the present system is confirmed by subject experiments on two text editing tasks: a bibliography formatting task and a text-to-HTML conversion task.
