Towards Quality-Adaptive Spoken Dialogue Management
نویسندگان
چکیده
Information about the quality of a Spoken Dialogue System (SDS) is usually used only for comparing SDSs with each other or manually improving the dialogue strategy. This information, however, provides a means for inherently improving the dialogue performance by adapting the Dialogue Manager during the interaction accordingly. For a quality metric to be suitable, it must suffice certain conditions. Therefore, we address requirements for the quality metric and, additionally, present approaches for quality-adaptive dialogue management.

End-to-end evaluations of more conversational dialogue systems with naive users have uncovered severe usability problems that, among other things, result in low task completion rates. First analyses suggest that these problems are related to the system’s dialogue management and turn-taking behavior. This paper starts with a presentation of experimental results, which shed some light on the effe...
متن کاملQuality-adaptive Spoken Dialogue Initiative Selection And Implications On Reward Modelling
Adapting Spoken Dialogue Systems to the user is supposed to result in more efficient and successful dialogues. In this work, we present an evaluation of a quality-adaptive strategy with a user simulator adapting the dialogue initiative dynamically during the ongoing interaction and show that it outperforms conventional non-adaptive strategies and a random strategy. Furthermore, we indicate a co...
