Abstract

This paper presents a chatterbot that answers or asks questions in Portuguese about a basic education text. From an input text composed of simple sentences, the questions and answers are generated in the chatterbot knowledge base. For this purpose, a morphosyntactic analysis is made and the semantic roles of each word are obtained. Seven semantic roles are treated, from which is defined what pronoun or adverb should be used to elaborate the question. Although with limitations, due to the complexity of Portuguese, it is possible to generate questions and answers from any text composed of simple sentences, and not only from those of basic education.
