Computational Creativity is a sub-field of Artificial Intelligence research, studying how to engineer software that exhibits behaviours which would reasonably be deemed creative. This paper addresses a creative task of question generation from scientific papers, using a pattern-based approach to finding relevant sentences from which questions should be generated, a natural language processing question construction mechanism, a crowd sourcing mechanism for question rating, and a robot interface for posing questions during a conference session, integrated in a creative Robo CHAIR solution. The system was trained on a set of 200 articles from past computer science conferences and evaluated on a set of articles of members of the local lab.
