Towards A Conversation-Analytic Taxonomy of Speech Overlap
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a taxonomy for classifying speech overlap in natural language dialogue. The scheme classifies overlap on the basis of several features, including onset point, local dialogue history, and management behavior. We describe the various dimensions of this scheme and show how it was applied to a corpus of remote, collaborative dialogue. Moving forward, this will serve as the basis for a computational model of speech overlap, and for use in artificial agents that interact with humans in social settings.

Modeling Norms of Turn-Taking in Multi-Party Conversation
Substantial research effort has been invested in recent decades into the computational study and automatic processing of multi-party conversation. While most aspects of conversational speech have benefited from a wide availability of analytic, computationally tractable techniques, only qualitative assessments are available for characterizing multi-party turn-taking. The current paper attempts t...
متن کاملA Comparison between Three Methods of Language Sampling: Freeplay, Narrative Speech and Conversation
Objectives: The spontaneous language sample analysis is an important part of the language assessment protocol. Language samples give us useful information about how children use language in the natural situations of daily life. The purpose of this study was to compare Conversation, Freeplay, and narrative speech in aspects of Mean Length of Utterance (MLU), Type-token ratio (TTR), and the numbe...
متن کاملTowards an Integrated Understanding of Speech Overlaps in Conversation
We investigate factors that affect speech overlaps in conversation, using large corpora of conversational telephone speech. We analyzed two types of speech overlaps: 1. One side takes over the turn before the other side finishes (turn-taking type); 2. One side speaks in the middle of the other side’s turn (backchannel type). We found that Japanese conversations have more short turn-taking type ...
متن کاملTaxonomy of Spontaneous Speech Phenomena in Mandarin Conversation
Spontaneous speech raises a number of research issues which cannot be observed in other types of speech data. Disfluent speech, ill-formed sequences and particular pronunciation variations mark the most important facet of spontaneous speech. The goal of this paper is to provide a taxonomy scheme of spontaneous speech phenomena, which offers the necessary basis for research works and application...
متن کاملPhonological Mean Length of Utterance in 48-60-Month-old Persian-speaking Children with Isfahani Accent: Comparison of Story Generation and Conversation Samples
Objective:Phonological Mean Length of Utterance (PMLU), a quantitative measure for assessment of phonological skills, has been considered in developmental studies as a diagnostic and clinical criterion in phonological development. Moreover, it is an indicator rate of the efficacy of the intervention. The PMLU is a word level measure that can be calculated on the child’s transcribed speech sampl...
