NLG systems generally produce summaries, explanations, descriptions, etc of non-linguistic data from databases, knowledge bases, sensors, and so forth. Good sources to learn about NLG include
- How do I Learn about NLG?
- Survey of the State of the Art in Natural Language Generation
- Wikipedia article on NLG
