Probabilistic Type Theory for Incremental Dialogue Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an adaptation of recent work on probabilistic Type Theory with Records (Cooper et al., 2014) for the purposes of modelling the incremental semantic processing of dialogue participants. After presenting the formalism and dialogue framework, we show how probabilistic TTR type judgements can be integrated into the inference system of an incremental dialogue system, and discuss how this could be used to guide parsing and dialogue management decisions.

Probabilistic Record Type Lattices for Incremental Reference Processing
This chapter addresses the issue of incorporating probabilistic type-theoretic inference into an incremental dialogue framework, using processing of referring expressions (that is, their interpretation and generation) as a test case. Within our framework, we model reference processing in a psycholinguistically plausible way– that is, in a strictly left-to-right, word-by-word, incremental fashio...
متن کاملProcessing Self-Repairs in an Incremental Type-Theoretic Dialogue System
We present a novel incremental approach to modelling self-repair phenomena in dialogue, using the grammar and parsing mechanism of Dynamic Syntax (DS) to construct Type Theory with Records (TTR) record type representations incrementally in both parsing and generation. We demonstrate how a DS-TTR hybrid implementation when integrated into an incremental dialogue system can be exploited to accoun...
متن کاملIncremental Semantics for Dialogue Processing: Requirements, and a Comparison of Two Approaches
Truly interactive dialogue systems need to construct meaning on at least a word-by-word basis. We propose desiderata for incremental semantics for dialogue models and systems, a task not heretofore attempted thoroughly. After laying out the desirable properties we illustrate how they are met by current approaches, comparing two incremental semantic processing frameworks: Dynamic Syntax enriched...
متن کاملModelling incremental self-repair processing in dialogue
Self-repairs, where speakers repeat themselves, reformulate or restart what they are saying, are pervasive in human dialogue. These phenomena provide a window into real-time human language processing. For explanatory adequacy, a model of dialogue must include mechanisms that account for them. Artificial dialogue agents also need this capability for more natural interaction with human users. Thi...
متن کاملIncremental Semantic Construction in a Dialogue System
This paper describes recent work on the DynDial project towards incremental semantic interpretation in dialogue. We outline our domain-general grammar-based approach, using a variant of Dynamic Syntax integrated with Type Theory with Records and a Davidsonian event-based semantics. We describe a Java-based implementation of the parser, used within the Jindigo framework to produce an incremental...
