Abstract
In this chapter the details are described of how a stochastic component for natural language understanding using a semantic case grammar formalism was developed (Minker et al., 1996). As foreseeable from the descriptions of the rule-based parser, the manual development of an understanding component by establishing and maintaining a system of grammar rules is costly. Each new combination of application and language requires its own adaptation or, in the worst case, a completely new implementation.

Notes
In a WOZ setup, the wizard input, a NL-parse paraphrase is provided to NLPARSE, a Texas Instruments propriety system, which then simulates a system response to the user (cf. Chapter 3).
For simplicity, only an utterance normalization is applied.
