Predicting Success in Dialogue

چکیده
Task-solving in dialogue depends on the linguistic alignment of the interlocutors, which Pickering & Garrod (2004) have suggested to be based on mechanistic repetition effects. In this paper, we seek confirmation of this hypothesis by looking at repetition in corpora, and whether repetition is correlated with task success. We show that the relevant repetition tendency is based on slow adaptation rather than short-term priming and demonstrate that lexical and syntactic repetition is a reliable predictor of task success given the first five minutes of a taskoriented dialogue.

Predicting Success in Goal-Driven Human-Human Dialogues
In goal-driven dialogue systems, success is often defined based on a structured definition of the goal. This requires that the dialogue system be constrained to handle a specific class of goals and that there be a mechanism to measure success with respect to that goal. However, in many human-human dialogues the diversity of goals makes it infeasible to define success in such a way. To address t...
متن کاملTackling a Shilly-Shally Classifier for Predicting Task Success in Spoken Dialogue Interaction
Statistical models, which predict that a task with a telephone-based Spoken Dialogue System (SDS) is unlikely to be completed, can be useful to adapt dialogue strategies. They can also trigger the decision to route callers directly to human assistance once it is clear that the SDS cannot automate the call. This paper addresses a number of issues that arise when deploying such models. We show th...
متن کاملIdentifying Individual Differences in Gender, Ethnicity, and Personality from Dialogue for Deception Detection
When automatically detecting deception, it is important to model individual differences across speakers. We explore the automatic identification of individual traits such as gender, native language, and personality, using acoustic-prosodic and lexical features from an initial non-deceptive dialogue. We also explore predicting success at deception and at deception detection, using the same featu...
متن کاملThe role of epistemological beliefs and spiritual intelligence in predicting academic success of students in secondary education
This study examined the role of epistemological beliefs and spiritual intelligence in predicting the academic success of students in secondary education. The numbers of 240 high school students were selected by random sampling and they completed the epistemological beliefs and the spiritual intelligence questionnaires. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regres...
متن کاملContinuously Predicting and Processing Barge-in During a Live Spoken Dialogue Task
Barge-in enables the user to provide input during system speech, facilitating a more natural and efficient interaction. Standard methods generally focus on singlestage barge-in detection, applying the dialogue policy irrespective of the barge-in context. Unfortunately, this approach performs poorly when used in challenging environments. We propose and evaluate a barge-in processing method that ...
