چکیده

Agents are becoming increasingly common as a means of structuring interactive systems, due to the highly complex and concurrent nature of modern systems. The manner in which interaction between these agents is specified is of fundamental importance, and must pay heed to expressivity and reuse concerns. There are also concerns specific to interactive systems, and in particular the need to specify and reason about user-system dialogue. We have shown previously that the standard model of object interaction is inadequate with respect to these concerns, and that the action model performs better with respect to these criteria. In this paper these results are drawn together with approaches previously taken in interactive systems. From this basis a schema calculus with interleaving semantics is proposed, which better addresses the concerns of expressivity and reuse in the interactive systems context.

Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning for Spoken Dialogue Systems

This thesis focuses on the problem of scalable optimization of dialogue behaviour in speech-based conversational systems using reinforcement learning. Most previous investigations in dialogue strategy learning have proposed flat reinforcement learning methods, which are more suitable for small-scale spoken dialogue systems. This research formulates the problem in terms of Semi-Markov Decision P...

It is argued that transparency and naturalness are important qualities of a dialogue for the student, helping him to concentrate on the learning task (thanks to naturalness) and to understand his own performance (thanks to transparency). It is argued that these qualities are also i...
