OBJECTIVE To determine the sound environment of preterm infants cared for in the NICU and to test the hypothesis that infants exposed to more adult language will make more vocalizations. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study of 36 infants who had a birth weight of ≤1250 g. Sixteen-hour recordings of the infant sound environment were made in the NICU from a digital language processor at ...

This work introduces a new maximum entropy language model that decomposes the model parameters into a low rank component that learns regularities in the training data and a sparse component that learns exceptions (e.g. multiword expressions). The low rank component corresponds to a continuous-space language model. This model generalizes the standard `1regularized maximum entropy model, and has ...

In this paper an architecture and special purpose markup language for simulated affective face-to-face communication is presented. In systems based on this architecture, users will be able to watch embodied conversational agents interact with each other in virtual locations on the internet. The markup language, or Rich Representation Language (RRL), has been designed to provide an integrated re...

We present the Virtual Guide, an embodied conversational agent that can give directions in a 3D virtual environment. We discuss how dialogue management, language generation and the generation of appropriate gestures are carried out in our system.

This paper looks at the interaction between structural metadata and language structure, i.e. syntax, in conversational speech. We present results in the use of automatically detected boundary events to improve parsing performance, and argue that the results suggest promise for using these events in language modeling. We describe strategies for incorporating metadata-informed language modeling a...

Conversational agents are exploding in popularity. However, much work remains in the area of social conversation as well as free-form conversation over a broad range of domains and topics. To advance the state of the art in conversational AI, Amazon launched the Alexa Prize, a 2.5-million-dollar university competition where sixteen selected university teams were challenged to build conversation...

Efficient language learning is one of the keys to social inclusion. In this paper we present some work aiming at creating a virtual language tutor. The ambition is to create a tutor that can be engaged in many aspects of language learning from detailed pronunciation training to conversational practice. Some of the crucial components of such a system are described. An initial implementation of a...

Representation systems are presented for the input and output of the first or deep phase of a language generation system. Actions and viewpoints are the key factors in determining what sentence is produced; viewpoints provide a wide range of ways tO discuss actions, their states and the plans they compose. The language generator plays a key role in a two-medium conversational system for a natur...
