Asher, N. and A. Lascarides, [1994] Intentions and Information in Discourse, in Proceedings of the 32nd Annual Meeting of the Association of Computational Linguistics (ACL94), Las Cruces, USA, June 1994, pp34--41.
This paper is about the flow of inference between communicative intentions, discourse structure and the domain during discourse processing. We augment a theory of discourse interpretation with a theory of distinct mental attitudes and reasoning about them, in order to provide an account of how the attitudes interact with reasoning about discourse structure.
