*situational Awareness and Conversational Grounding in Collaborative Bicycle Repair

چکیده
In this paper we consider the ways in which visual information is used in the accomplishment of collaborative physical tasks. We focus on the role of visual information in maintaining task awareness and in achieving mutual understanding in conversation. We first describe the theoretical framework we are using to analyze the role of visual information in physical collaboration. Then, we present two studies which examine the importance of specific types of visual information for conversation and performance in a collaborative bicycle repair task. We conclude with a general discussion of how situational awareness and conversational grounding is achieved in collaborative repair and with some design considerations for video systems intended to support remote collaborative repair.

Remote gesturing visualization contributes to the efficiency of distant collaboration tasks because it enables coordination among participant's action and talk. This paper presents computer vision improvements of VideoArms, a collaborative system proposed by Tang et al. coupling a sensitive board with a video capture of participant's gesture. The main contributions address robustness, constrain...
متن کاملConversational Repairs in Persian Dramatic Discourse: Akbar Radi's Pellekân (The Steps)
The present study is an attempt to investigate conversational repair phenomenon in Persian dramatic discourse and it tries to check the presence of any predominant preference for employing a specific type of repair rather than the others in the context of Persian drama. To reach the aforementioned purpose, Schegloff, Jefferson, and Sacks’s (1977) framework has been adopted and applied to Akbar ...
متن کاملTask-Oriented Conversational Behavior of Agents for Collaboration in Human-Agent Teamwork
Coordination is an essential ingredient for human-agent teamwork. It requires team members to share knowledge to establish common grounding and mutual awareness among them. This paper proposes a behavioral architecture CBDI that enhances the knowledge sharing using natural language communication between team members. Collaborative conversation protocols and resource allocation mechanism have be...
متن کاملUncertainty, Utility, and Misunderstanding: A Decision-Theoretic Perspective on Grounding in Conversational Systems
Uncertainty plays a central role in the handling of misunderstanding in dialog. People engaged in conversation typically take a sequence of actions to establish and maintain mutual understanding—a process referred to as grounding. We explore representations and control strategies for grounding utterances founded on performing explicit probabilistic inference about failures in communication. The...
