Designing an Open, Multidimensional Dialogue Act Taxonomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper discusses issues in the design of a rich taxonomy of dialogue acts that is hierarchically structured in such a way that a notion of ‘dimension’ is reflected, corresponding to the intuition that communication is a complex activity, with multiple aspects that can be addressed simultaneously. The taxonomy is also ‘open’ in the sense that it is based on clear criteria for including dialogue act types and for how they fit into the taxonomy, allowing easy addition of other act types.

A Multidimensional Approach to Multimodal Dialogue Act Annotation
This paper investigates the benefits of multidimensional approaches to dialogue act annotation, and the advantages of using layered multidimensional ’open’ dialogue act taxonomies. We performed a comparative analysis of a one-dimensional and two multidimensional dialogue act annotation schemes, and concluded that not only does a multidimensional approach support a more accurate analysis of huma...
متن کاملMultidimensional Dialogue Management
In this paper we present an approach to dialogue management that supports the generation of multifunctional utterances. It is based on the multidimensional dialogue act taxonomy and associated context model as developed in Dynamic Interpretation Theory (DIT). The multidimensional organisation of the taxonomy reflects that there are various aspects that dialogue participants have to deal with si...
متن کاملA Multidimensional Approach to Utterance Segmentation and Dialogue Act Classification
In this paper we present a multidimensional approach to utterance segmentation and automatic dialogue act classification. We show that the use of multiple dimensions in distinguishing and annotating units not only supports a more accurate analysis of human communication, but can also help to solve some notorious problems concerning the segmentation of dialogue into functional units. We introduc...
متن کاملDimensions in Dialogue Act Annotation
This paper is concerned with the fundamentals of multidimensional dialogue act annotation, i.e. with what it means to annotate dialogues with information about the communicative acts that are performed with the utterances, taking various ‘dimensions’ into account. Two ideas seem to be prevalent in the literature concerning the notion of dimension: (1) dimensions correspond to different types of...
متن کاملDISCUSS: A dialogue move taxonomy layered over semantic representations
In this paper we describe DISCUSS, a dialogue move taxonomy layered over semantic representations. We designed this scheme to enable development of computational models of tutorial dialogues and to provide an intermediate representation suitable for question and tutorial act generation. As such, DISCUSS captures semantic and pragmatic elements across four dimensions: Dialogue Act, Rhetorical Fo...
