Annotation of Transition-Relevance Places and Interruptions for the Description of Turn-Taking in Conversations in French Media Content (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Few speech resources describe interruption phenomena, especially for TV and media content. |
| Approach: | They propose to annotation Transition-Relevance Places (TRPs) and Floor-Taking event types on an existing French TV and Radio broadcast corpus to facilitate studies of interruptions and turn-taking. |
| Outcome: | The proposed annotations on an existing French TV and Radio broadcast corpus show they are reliable and reliable . |

Querying Interaction Structure: Approaches to Overlap in Spoken Language Corpora (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | In this paper, we address two specific problems arising when indexing and searching interaction corpora with overlapping speaker contributions. |
| Approach: | They propose and experiment with a speaker-based search mode that enables any speaker’s transcription tier to be the basic tokenization layer whereby contributions of other speakers are mapped to this given tier. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method enables any speaker’s transcription tier to be the basic tokenization layer whereby contributions of other speakers are mapped to this given tier. |
