Support for the laboratory's artificial intelligence research is provided in part by the Office of Naval Research under Office of Naval Research contract N00014-75-C-0389. An explanatory component is an important ingredient in any complex AI system. A simple generative scheme to build descriptive phrases from Lisp function calls can produce respectable explanations if explanation generators capitalize on the function decomposition reflected in Lisp programs.
