چکیده

We propose a speech-based conversation environment called Voice Cafe for facilitating dynamic knowledge interaction. Dynamic knowledge interaction is a key concept for creative interaction. Conversation is one of important interactions that facilitates dynamic knowledge interaction. In Voice Cafe, users can talk with conversational agents being equipped with automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech (TTS) systems. Users can listen to a conversation between agents, and join in their conversation by speech interaction. Design concepts and an overview of Voice Cafe are described.
