A Wizard-of-Oz Environment to Study Referring Expression Generation in a Situated Spoken Dialogue Task
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a Wizard-of-Oz environment for data collection on Referring Expression Generation (REG) in a real situated spoken dialogue task. The collected data will be used to build user simulation models for reinforcement learning of referring expression generation strategies.

An Integrated Approach to Robust Processing of Situated Spoken Dialogue
Spoken dialogue is notoriously hard to process with standard NLP technologies. Natural spoken dialogue is replete with disfluent, partial, elided or ungrammatical utterances, all of which are difficult to accommodate in a dialogue system. Furthermore, speech recognition is known to be a highly error-prone task, especially for complex, open-ended domains. The combination of these two problems – ...
متن کاملRobust Processing of Situated Spoken Dialogue
Spoken dialogue is notoriously hard to process with standard language processing technologies. Dialogue systems must indeed meet two major challenges. First, natural spoken dialogue is replete with disfluent, partial, elided or ungrammatical utterances. Second, speech recognition remains a highly errorprone task, especially for complex, open-ended domains. We present an integrated approach for ...
متن کاملEvaluating spoken dialogue models under the interactive pattern recognition framework
The new Interactive Pattern Recognition (IPR) framework has been proposed to deal with human-machine interaction. In this context a new formulation has been recently defined to represent a Spoken Dialogue System as an IPR problem. In this work this formulation is applied to define graphical models that deal with Spoken Dialogue Systems. The definition of both a Dialogue Manager and a User Model...
متن کاملFish or Fowl: A Wizard of Oz Evaluation of Dialogue Strategies in the Restaurant Domain
Recent work on evaluation of spoken dialogue systems suggests that the information presentation phase of complex dialogues is often the primary contributor to dialogue duration. This indicates that better algorithms are needed for the presentation of complex information in speech. Currently however we lack data about the tasks and dialogue strategies on which to base such algorithms. In this pa...
متن کاملWizard of Oz Experiments on Speech Dialogue Systems Design and Realisation with a New Integrated Simulation Environment
The Wizard of Oz simulation technique is an approved aid for designing speech dialogue systems. There are a number of tools for simulation which have been used successfully, but which are inflexible in terms of the application domain, support for additional modalities, or integration with existing dialogue design tools. This thesis describes the design and realisation of Wizard of Oz experiment...
