    <Paragraph position="0"> In this paper, we presented techniques of formal reconstruction of parallel structures implicitly speci ed by vice versa or similar operators. We addressed the problem by a domain-independent analysis method that uses deep semantics and contextually enhanced representations, exploits recasting rules to accommodate linguistic variations into uniform expressions, and makes use of patterns to match parallel structure categories.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> Although we dedicated a lot of effort to building a principled method, the success is limited with respect to the generality of the problem: in some cases, the scope of reconstruction overarches entire paragraphs and deciding about the form requires considerable inferencing (cf. collection at http://www.chiasmus.com/). For our purposes, we are interested in expanding our method to other kinds of implicit structures in the tutorial context, for example, interpretations of references to analogies, in the case of which structure accommodation and swapping related items should also be prominent parts.</Paragraph>
