Requirement Mining in Technical Documents

Juyeon Kang, Patrick Saint-Dizier

Abstract: In this paper, we first develop the linguistic characteristics of requirements which are specific forms of arguments. The discourse structures that refine or elaborate requirements are also analyzed. These specific discourse relations are conceptually characterized, with the functions they play. An implementation is carried out in Dislog on the platform. Dislog allows high level specifications in logic for a fast and easy prototyping at a high level of linguistic adequacy.
