The Conversational User Interface

نویسنده

چکیده

Work on both the graphical user interface (GUI) and the conversational user interface (CUI) started at about the same time, about 40 years ago. The GUI was a lot easier to implement, and it made computing and information resources available to ordinary people—but over the years it has lost much of its simplicity and charm. The CUI has taken many more years to develop, requiring major scientific and engineering advances in speech, natural language processing, user-modeling, and reasoning, not to mention increases in cost-effective computation. But the infrastructure is now in place for the widespread distribution of conversational interfaces, and we have begun to imagine and create sophisticated ways of exploiting this new mode of interaction. This may well be the “killer app” for deep natural language processing and complex reasoning.

Domain Specific Design Patterns: Designing For Conversational User Interfaces

Designing conversational user interface experience is complicated because conversation comes with many expectations. When these expectations are met, we feel the interface is natural, but once violated, we feel something is amiss. The last decade witnessed human language technologies and behaviours to enable humans converse with software using spoken dialogue to access, create and process infor...

An Effective Conversational Agent with User Modeling Based on Bayesian Network

A conversational agent is an agent that interacts with users using natural language interface. Especially in Internet space, its role has been recently highlighted as a virtual representative of a web site. However, most conversational agents use simple pattern matching techniques for their answer without considering user goals and thus give user an unsatisfactory response. In this paper, we pr...
