Dimensions in Dialogue Act Annotation

Two ideas seem to be prevalent in the literature concerning the notion of dimension: (1) dimensions correspond to different types of...
متن کاملA Multidimensional Approach to Multimodal Dialogue Act Annotation
This paper investigates the benefits of multidimensional approaches to dialogue act annotation, and the advantages of using layered multidimensional ’open’ dialogue act taxonomies. We performed a comparative analysis of a one-dimensional and two multidimensional dialogue act annotation schemes, and concluded that not only does a multidimensional approach support a more accurate analysis of huma...
متن کاملDialogue Act Annotation with the ISO 24617-2 Standard
This chapter describes recent and ongoing annotation efforts using the ISO 24617-2 standard for dialogue act annotation. Experimental studies are reported on the annotation by human annotators and by annotation machines of some of the specific features of the ISO annotation scheme, such as its multidimensional annotation of communicative functions, the recognition of each of its nine dimensions...
متن کاملDimensions of communication
This study is concerned with the identification and analysis of dimensions of communication in dialogue, with the aim to provide theoretical and empirical arguments for chosing the dimensions in the ISO standard for dialogue act annotation 24617-2 “Semantic annotation framework, Part 2: Dialogue acts”. A ‘dimension’ in this context is a cluster of semantically related communicative functions wh...
متن کاملTransfer of Corpus-Specific Dialogue Act Annotation to ISO Standard: Is it worth it?
Spoken conversation corpora often adapt existing Dialogue Act (DA) annotation specifications, such as DAMSL, DIT++, etc., to task specific needs, yielding incompatible annotations; thus, limiting corpora re-usability. Recently accepted ISO standard for DA annotation – Dialogue Act Markup Language (DiAML) – is designed as domain and application independent. Moreover, the clear separation of dial...
