1. A method comprising:
- receiving a deep structure;
determining at least one of (1) one or more concepts, (2) one or more phrases, and (3) one or more words from at least one value in the deep structure; and
determining at least one surface structure from the determined at least one of (1) one or more concepts, (2) one or more phrases, and (3) one or more words from at least one value in the deep structure.

11. A method comprising:
-
determining a plurality of values from a deep structure;
for each of the plurality of values searching a data repository for at least one concept value associated with the value from the deep structure;
identifying the at least one concept value from the data repository, searching the data repository for at least one phrase value associated with the at least one phrase value; and
identifying the at least one phrase value from the data repository, searching the data repository for at least one word associated with the at least one phrase value; and
generating a surface structure from (1) the at least one concept value, (2) the at least one phrase value, and (3) the at least one word.

12. A probabilistic method of determining a surface structure from a deep structure, the method comprising:
-
receiving a deep structure;
determining a plurality of surface structures from the deep structure; and
performing a probabilistic analysis on each surface structure to select a surface structure from the plurality of surface structures. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A surface structure generation system comprising:
-
a data repository storing concepts, phrases, and words;
a search engine operable to retrieve at least one of concepts, phrases, and words from the data repository associated with a deep structure;
a surface structure generator operable to generate a plurality of surface structures from at least one of concepts, phrases, and words retrieved from the data repository that are associated with the deep structure. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. An apparatus comprising:
-
storage means for storing concepts, phrases, and words;
a search engine means for retrieving at least one of concepts, phrases, and words from the storage means that are associated with a deep structure; and
a surface structure generator means for generating a plurality of surface structures from data retrieved by the search engine means that is associated with the deep structure. - View Dependent Claims (30)
