چکیده

In this paper we will present work carried out to scale up the system for text understanding called GETARUNS, and port it to be used in dialogue understanding. The current goal is that of extracting automatically argumentative information in order to build argumentative structure. The long term goal is using argumentative structure to produce automatic summarization of spoken dialogues. Very much like other deep linguistic processing systems, our system is a generic text/dialogue understanding system that can be used in connection with an ontology – WordNet and other similar repositories of commonsense knowledge. We will present the adjustments we made in order to cope with transcribed spoken dialogues like those produced in the ICSI Berkeley project. In a final section we present preliminary evaluation of the system on two tasks: the task of automatic argumentative labeling and another frequently addressed task: referential vs. non-referential pronominal detection. Results obtained fair much higher than those reported in similar experiments with machine learning approaches.

Deep Linguistic Processing for Spoken Dialogue Systems

We describe a framework for deep linguistic processing for natural language understanding in task-oriented spoken dialogue systems. The goal is to create domaingeneral processing techniques that can be shared across all domains and dialogue tasks, combined with domain-specific optimization based on an ontology mapping from the generic LF to the application ontology. This framework has been test...

Language Processing for Spoken Dialogue Systems: Is Shallow Parsing Enough?

With maturing speech technology, spoken dialogue systems are increasingly moving from research prototypes to fielded systems. The fielded systems however generally employ much simpler linguistic and dialogue processing strategies than the research prototypes. We describe an implemented spoken-language dialogue system for a travel planning domain which supports a mixed initiative dialogue strate...

Linguistic phrase spotting in a simple application spoken dialogue system

Spoken dialogue systems have to cope with well known problems of spontaneous speech such as ungrammaticalities, hesitations or corrections. Besides, unrestricted speech poses the problem of paraphrasing, rising the number of utterances exceeding the linguistic coverage of the system. Concerning the linguistic processing of spontaneous speech, partial parsing represents a good method to achieve ...

Robust parsing in spoken dialogue systems

The rule-based parsing is a prevalent method for the natural language understanding (NLU) and has been introduced in dialogue systems for spoken language processing (SLP). However, additional measures must be taken to cope with the severe spoken linguistic phenomena, such as garbage, repetition, ellipsis, word disordering, fragment and ill form, which frequently occur in the spoken language. We...

Studies on Robust Language and Dialogue Processing for Spoken Dialogue Systems

In spoken dialogue systems, robust language processing for spontaneous speech understanding and robust dialogue processing for achieving user goal are inevitable. Previously, research of speech recognition and research of natural language understanding were done independently. At first glance, it seems to be no problem to combine these two technologies, because the purpose of speech recognition...
