A Flexible Approach to Cooperative Response Generation in Information-Seeking Dialogues
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a cooperative consultation system on a restricted domain. The system builds hypotheses on the user's plan and avoids misunderstandings (with consequent repair dialogues) through clarification dialogues in case of ambiguity. The role played by constraints in the generation of the answer is characterized in order to limit the cases of ambiguities requiring a clarification dialogue. The answers of the system are generated at different levels of detail, according to the user's competence in the domain.

A Constraint-Based Approach for Cooperative Information-Seeking Dialogue
We present a dialogue generation model, implemented in the COMIX prototype information system, which uses a Constraint-Based Problem-Solver (CBPS) to support cooperative mixed-initiative information-seeking dialogue. Use of the CBPS enables a dialogue system to 1) incrementally interleave query construction with solution construction 2) immediately detect under-constrained and overconstrained i...
متن کاملConditional responses in information-seeking dialogues
The paper deals with conditional responses of the form “Not if c/Yes if c” in reply to a question “?q” in the context of information-seeking dialogues. A conditional response is triggered if the obtainability of q depends on whether c holds: The response indicates a possible need to find alternative solutions, opening a negotiation in the dialogue. The paper discusses the conditions under which...

متن کاملManipulation Control of a Flexible Space Free Flying Robot Using Fuzzy Tuning Approach
Cooperative object manipulation control of rigid-flexible multi-body systems in space is studied in this paper. During such tasks, flexible members like solar panels may get vibrated that in turn may lead to some oscillatory disturbing forces on other subsystems, and consequently produces error in the motion of the end-effectors of the cooperative manipulating arms. Therefore, to design and dev...
متن کاملGenerating Cooperative System Responses in Information Retrieval Dialogues
This paper describes the Corinna system which integrates a theoretical approach to dialogue modeling with text generation techniques to conduct cooperative dialogues in natural language. It is shown how the dialogue model COR can be augmented by adding discourse relations as an additional level of description which is particularly valuable for the generation of dialogue acts.
