| Challenge: | Recent studies have focused on task-based or instrumental dialogs, but there is increasing interest in social or interactional dialogs. |
| Approach: | They describe a corpus of 193 dyadic text dialogs based on a novel 'getting to know you' social dialog elicitation paradigm and propose additional acts to better cover greeting and leavetaking. |
| Outcome: | The proposed actions cover greeting and leavetaking, and the proposed acts improve the interaction between the dialogs and spoken language. |
