Confidence-Based Adaptivity in Response Generation for a Spoken Dialogue System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper addresses the issue of how to increase adaptivity in response generation for a spoken dialogue system. Realization strategies for dialogue responses depend on communicative con dence levels and interaction management goals. We rst describe a Java/XML-based generator which produces di erent realizations of system responses based on agendas speci ed by the dialogue manager. We then discuss how greater adaptivity can be achieved by using a set of distinct generator agents, each of which is specialized in its realization strategy (e.g. highly elliptical or highly explicit). This allows a simpler design of each generator agent, while increasing the overall system adaptivity to meet the requirements for exible cooperation in incremental and immediate interactive situations.

Adaptivity Andresponse Generation in a Spoken Dialogue System
The paper addresses the issue of how to increase adaptivity in response generation for a spoken dialogue system. Realization strategies for dialogue responses depend on communicative confidence levels and interaction management goals. We first describe a Java/XML-based generator which produces different realizations of system responses based on agendas specified by the dialogue manager. We then...

متن کاملResponse-Based Confidence Annotation for Spoken Dialogue Systems
Spoken and multimodal dialogue systems typically make use of confidence scores to choose among (or reject) a speech recognizer’s Nbest hypotheses for a particular utterance. We argue that it is beneficial to instead choose among a list of candidate system responses. We propose a novel method in which a confidence score for each response is derived from a classifier trained on acoustic and lexic...
