SCXML for Building Conversational Agents in the Dialog Web Lab
نویسندگان
چکیده
The W3C has selected Harel Statecharts, under the name of State Chart XML (SCXML), as the basis for future standards in the area of (multimodal) dialog systems (Barnett et al. 2012). In an effort to educate people about SCXML we are building a web-based development environment where the dialogs of embodied, spoken conversational agents can be managed and controlled using SCXML, in a playful and interesting manner.

Developing Natural Language Enabled Games in (Extended) SCXML
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has a standard in the pipeline – called SCXML – that may turn out to be very suitable for the design and implementation of games, in particular games featuring (possibly multimodal) natural language dialogue. We see three main reasons why SCXML may be a good fit for the game industry: 1) SCXML is all about statecharts – a powerful extension of finite-state ma...
متن کاملDTask and LiteBody: Open Source, Standards-Based Tools for Building Web-Deployed Embodied Conversational Agents
Two tools for developing embodied conversational agents and deploying them over the world-wide web to standard web browsers are presented. DTask is a hierarchical task decomposition-based dialogue planner, based on the CEA-2018 task description language standard. LiteBody is an extensible, web-based BML renderer that runs in most contemporary web browsers with no additional software and provide...
متن کاملRoundtable: An Online Framework for Building Web-based Conversational Agents
We present an online system that provides a complete web-based sandbox for creating, testing and publishing embodied conversational agents. The tool, called Roundtable, empowers many different types of authors and varying team sizes to create flexible interactions by automating many editing workflows while limiting complexity and hiding architectural concerns. Finished characters can be publish...
متن کاملKnowledge Assimilation and Web Deployment Techniques for Conversational Agents
We describe techniques for building conversational agents that integerate online and offline knowledge bases with logical inference engines. Information sources such as the WordNet knowledge base and a Web content extraction agent using Google’s Web-search API cooperate in a distributed multi-agent component environment. Our agents interact with users over the Web, as voice-enabled animated cha...
متن کاملBeyond the Form Interpretation Algorithm Towards flexible dialog management for conversational voice and multi-modal applications
The dialog or voice user interface choices available to application developers in the present version of VoiceXML are largely limited to the capabilities of the Form Interpretation Algorithm (FIA) combined with dynamic server-side generation of VoiceXML. This position paper discusses several improvements aimed at providing flexible dialog management in VoiceXML. The notion of recursive transiti...
