Speech Actions and Mental States in Task-Oriented Dialogues
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a set of speech actions to account for how conversants collaborate in building a domain plan. The actions that we propose are indexical on the current plan, which is part of the mental states of the conversants. The current plan not only includes the actions that have been proposed to solve the problem, but also beliefs about the plans validity and how each action contributes to the overall goal of the plan. The intended effects of the actions are that the current plan is updated.

Logical Form of Complex Sentences in Task-Oriented Dialogues
Introduction Although most NLP researchers agree that a level of "logical form" is a necessary step toward the goal of representing the meaning of a sentence, few people agree on the content and form of this level of representation. An even smaller number of people have considered the complex action sentences that are often expressed in taskoriented dialogues. Most existing logical form represe...
متن کاملAn interlingua based on domain actions for machine translation of task-oriented dialogues
This paper describes an interlingua for spoken language translation that is based on domain actions in the travel planning domain. Domain actions are composed of speech acts (e.g., requestinformation), attributes (e.g., size, price), and objects (e.g., hotel, flight) and can take arguments. Development of the interlingua is guided by a database containing travel dialogues in English, Korean, Ja...

متن کاملAnalysis of Changes in Dialogue Rhythm Due to Dialogue Acts in Task-Oriented Dialogues
We consider that factors such as prosody of systems’ utterances and dialogue rhythm are important to attain a natural human-machine dialogue. However, the relations between dialogue rhythm and speaker’s various states in task-oriented dialogue have been not revealed. In this study, we collected taskoriented dialogues and analyzed the relations between “dialogue structures, kinds of dialogue act...
متن کاملFormal semantics of speech acts for argumentative dialogues
In this paper, we give formal semantics to speech acts for argumentative dialogues in the context of an agent-oriented programming language. Our approach to giving formal semantics to such speech acts uses operational semantics and builds upon existing work that provides computationally grounded semantics for agent mental attitudes such as beliefs and goals.
