TITLE: ICONIC INTERFACES IN INTELLIGENT AAC SYSTEMS AUTHORS: Bruce R. Baker, Eric H. Nyberg, Kathleen F. McCoy and Patrick Demasco COMMENTS: (c) 1990 RESNA Press. Reprinted with permission. ABSTRACT: The problems in developing a system with the complete linguistic ability of a human speaker are overwhelming given the current state of technology and linguistic theory. However, some of the issues involved can be finessed by providing the system with certain kinds of linguistic information. Using multi-meaning sequenced icons as an input medium allows the system to get much information out of few actuations. This paper discusses the use of such an interface in an intelligent AAC system.
