DIPPER: Description and Formalisation of an Information-State Update Dialogue System Architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
The DIPPER architecture is a collection of software agents for prototyping spoken dialogue systems. Implemented on top of the Open Agent Architecture (OAA), it comprises agents for speech input and output, dialogue management, and further supporting agents. We define a formal syntax and semantics for the DIPPER information state update language. The language is independent of particular programming languages, and incorporates procedural attachments for access to external resources using OAA.

A Dynamic Logic Formalisation of the Dialogue Gameboard
This paper explores the possibility of using the paradigm of Dynamic Logic (DL) to formalise information states and update processes on information states. In particular, we present a formalisation of the dialogue gameboard introduced by Jonathan Ginzburg. From a more general point of view, we show that DL is particularly well suited to develop rigorous formal foundations for an approach to dia...

In this paper we explore the possibility of using the paradigm of Dynamic Logic (DL) to formalise information states and update processes on information states. In particular, we present a formalisation of Inquiry-Oriented Dialogues in terms of Ginzburg’s dialogue gameboard. From a more general point of view, we show that DL is specially well suited to develop rigorous formal foundations for an...
متن کاملFormalising Hinting in Tutorial Dialogues
The formalisation of the hinting process in Tutorial Dialogues is undertaken in order to simulate the Socratic teaching method. An adaptation of the BE&E annotation scheme for Dialogue Moves, based on the theory of social obligations, is sketched, and a taxonomy of hints and a selection algorithm is suggested based on data from the BE&E corpus. Both the algorithm and the tutor’s reasoning are f...
متن کاملSide effect free dialogue management in a voice enabled procedure browser
We describe a general side-effect free dialogue management architecture suitable for command and control tasks, which extends the “update semantics” framework by including task as well as dialogue information in the information state. We show that this enables simple and elegant treatments of several dialogue management problems, including corrections, confirmations, querying of the environment...
متن کاملAutomatic annotation of COMMUNICATOR dialogue data for learning dialogue strategies and user simulations
We present and evaluate an automatic annotation system which builds “Information State Update” (ISU) representations of dialogue context for the COMMUNICATOR (2000 and 2001) corpora of humanmachine dialogues (approx 2300 dialogues). The purposes of this annotation are to generate training data for reinforcement learning (RL) of dialogue policies, to generate data for building user simulations, ...
