Towards Continuous Dialogue Corpus Creation: writing to corpus and generating from it (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to create dialogue corpora annotated with interoperable semantic information are based on ISO standard data models and tools. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a corpus as a shared repository for analysis and modelling of interactive dialogue behaviour and for implementation, integration and evaluation of dialogue system components. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is applied to the design of two multimodal interactive applications - the Virtual Negotiation Coach and the Virtual Debate Coach. |
