Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is an area of clinical educational practice for speech therapists whose goal is to assist individuals who are orally deficient. The pictorial communication symbols are one of the AAC systems that can complement or even replace the spoken language of these individuals. It is possible to use the ability already acquired in pictorial communication by children with disabilities to promote their literacy. Unfortunately, the related literature does not seem to indicate a practical solution to this question. In this paper, we propose a method for automatic generation of natural sentences in the Brazilian Portuguese language in regards to a given sequence of pictorial symbols presented. This method has been implemented in a visual tool to support professional educators and is currently part of one of the AAC tools of the AAC Laboratory at the Federal University of Sergipe, Brazil. A validation set provided by the Laboratory has shown the correctness of the sentences generated by the tool.
