8. A system comprising: a processor; and a computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, result in the processor performing operations comprising: partitioning, via a processor, a speech recognizer output into independent clauses; identifying, independent of domain, a dialog act for each of the independent clauses; identifying, dependent on domain, an object within each of the independent clauses; and recursively generating, for each independent clause in the independent clauses, a semantic representation using the dialog act and the object of each independent clause.
