| Challenge: | Using deep neural networks, task-oriented dialogue systems can be used to generate an appropriate response to users' inputs. |
| Approach: | They collected a multimodal dialogue corpus with a wide range of speaker ages and set up a dialogue task based on travel . results suggest adult speakers have more independent opinions, older speakers express opinions more frequently compared with other age groups, and operators expressed a smile more frequently to minor speakers. |
| Outcome: | The results show that adult speakers have more independent opinions, the older speakers express their opinions more frequently compared with other age groups, and the operators expressed a smile more frequently to the minor speakers. |
