چکیده

Automatic assessment of subjective characteristics of customers like politeness, satisfaction or competence could provide services companies with information needful for improving service quality. In this work, we construct a regression model for politeness estimation of customers, which uses a) set of linguistic indicators and b) manual estimations of expert(s). We apply the suggested methodology for processing dialogues of passengers with directory inquires of Barcelona railway station. All linguistic indicators are proved to be statistically significant with a level of confidence equal to 5%. The constructed model is tested on independent data set and demonstrates good concordance with expert opinions. Key-expressions: politeness estimation, regression model

Constructing Empirical Models for Automatic Dialog Parameterization

Automatic classification of dialogues between clients and a service center needs a preliminary dialogue parameterization. Such a parameterization is usually faced with essential difficulties when we deal with politeness, competence, satisfaction, and other similar characteristics of clients. In the paper, we show how to avoid these difficulties using empirical formulae based on lexical-grammati...

Robust Estimation in Linear Regression Model: the Density Power Divergence Approach

The minimum density power divergence method provides a robust estimate in the face of a situation where the dataset includes a number of outlier data. In this study, we introduce and use a robust minimum density power divergence estimator to estimate the parameters of the linear regression model and then with some numerical examples of linear regression model, we show the robustness of this est...

Kernel Models for Affective Lexicon Creation

Emotion recognition algorithms for spoken dialogue applications typically employ lexical models that are trained on labeled in-domain data. In this paper, we propose a domainindependent approach to affective text modeling that is based on the creation of an affective lexicon. Starting from a small set of manually annotated seed words, continuous valence ratings for new words are estimated using...

حل معادلات برآوردکننده مدل‌های رگرسیون با اندازه خطای تصادفی روی متغیر مستقل به روش بهینه سازی

Measurements of some variables in statistical analysis are often encountered with random errors. Therefore, investigating of the effects of these errors seems to be important. This event in regression analysis seems to be more necessary. Because the aim of the fitting a regression model is estimating the effect of an independent variable on a response variable. Then measurements of an independe...

Positive-Shrinkage and Pretest Estimation in Multiple Regression: A Monte Carlo Study with Applications

Consider a problem of predicting a response variable using a set of covariates in a linear regression model. If it is a priori known or suspected that a subset of the covariates do not significantly contribute to the overall fit of the model, a restricted model that excludes these covariates, may be sufficient. If, on the other hand, the subset provides useful information, shrinkage meth...
