Abstract(in English) We are now developing a problem solving and knowledge acquisition system based on co-reference between drill texts and dialogue with a teacher, focusing on first grade mathematics. The system offers multiple input and output channels such as natural language, gestures, and graphics. This paper discusses a method of generating gestures in cooperation with utterance generation. A gesture in this case means pointing of objects on the drill text or drawing pictures. It is represented by the movement of a pen, and is displayed as 2-D graphical data. First, the architecture of the dialogue-based problem solving system is summarized. Then the pointer sequence and gesture command are defined in order to describe the structure and meaning of gesture. Next, the extraction procedures of commands and pointer sequence are presented. Lastly, results of the simulation are shown.
