چکیده

This paper introduces a new corpus of consulting dialogues designed for training a dialogue manager that can handle consulting dialogues through spontaneous interactions from the tagged dialogue corpus. We have collected more than 150 hours of consulting dialogues in the tourist guidance domain. This paper outlines our taxonomy of dialogue act (DA) annotation that can describe two aspects of an utterance: the communicative function (speech act (SA)), and the semantic content of the utterance. We provide an overview of the Kyoto tour guide dialogue corpus and a preliminary analysis using the DA tags. We also show a result of a preliminary experiment for SA tagging via Support Vector Machines (SVMs). In addition, we mention the usage of our corpus for the spoken dialogue system that is being developed.

Evaluation of HMM-based Models for the Annotation of Unsegmented Dialogue Turns

The dialogues are usually annotated using Dialogue Acts (DA), and the manual annotation is difficult and time-consuming. Therefore, several semiautomatic annotation processes have been proposed to speed-up the process. The standard annotation model is based on Hidden Markov Models (...
