Predicting Obligation Dialogue Acts from Prosodic and Speaker Information
In this paper a methodology and preliminary results of a machine learning experiment for correlating intonation patterns and speaker information with dialogue acts are presented. The goal of this work is to assess the extent to which prosodic and speaker data can help to identify obligation dialogue acts within a specific practical-dialogues audio and video corpus in Mexican Spanish. The machin...
متن کاملAutomatically predicting dialogue structure using prosodic features
Spoken dialogue systems need to track dialogue structure in order to conduct sensible conversations. In previous work, we used only a shallow analysis of past dialogue in predicting the current dialogue act. Here we show that a hierarchical analysis of dialogue structure can significantly improve dialogue act recognition. Our approach is to integrate dialogue act recognition with speech recogni...
متن کاملUsing High Level Dialogue Information for Dialogue Act Recognition Using Prosodic Features
We look at the effect of using high level discourse knowledge in dialogue act type detection. We also look at ways this knowledge can be used for improving language modelling and intonation modelling of utterance types. We find a significant improvement of predictability of dialogue models using higher level discourse knowledge.
متن کاملIntegrating prosodic features in dialogue understanding
We report our studies on functions of prosodic information in dialogue and on the result of our experiment in dialogue using a speech understanding system that incorporates a discrimination schema for illocutionary acts using prosodic features obtained from human-human dialogs. For constructing a speech understanding system with an ‘effortless’ interface, it is necessary to model coordination i...
متن کاملPredicting Dialogue Acts from Prosodic Information
In this paper, the influence of intonation to recognize dialogue acts from speech is assessed. Assessment is based on an empirical approach: manually tagged data from a spoken-dialogue and video corpus are used in a CARTstyle machine learning algorithm to produce a predictive model. Our approach involves two general stages: the tagging task, and the development of machine learning experiments. ...
