Discourse and Dialogue Processing in Spoken Intelligent Tutoring Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
In recent years, the development of intelligent tutoring dialogue systems has become more prevalent, in an attempt to close the performance gap between human and computer tutors. Tutoring applications differ in many ways, however, from the types of applications for which spoken dialogue systems are typically developed. This talk will illustrate some of the opportunities and challenges in this area, focusing on issues such as affective reasoning, discourse and dialogue analysis, and performance evaluation.

Applications of Discourse Structure for Spoken Dialogue Systems
Due to the relatively simple structure of dialogues in previous spoken dialogue systems, discourse structure has seen limited applications in these systems. We investigate the utility of discourse structure for spoken dialogue systems in complex domains (e.g. tutoring). Two types of applications are being pursued: on the system side and on the user side. On the system side, we investigate if th...
متن کاملDARE: Deep Anaphora Resolution in Dialogue based Intelligent Tutoring Systems
Anaphora resolution is a central topic in dialogue and discourse processing that deals with finding the referents of pronouns. There are no studies, to the best of our knowledge, that focus on anaphora resolution in the context of tutorial dialogues. In this paper, we present the first version of DARE (Deep Anaphora Resolution Engine), an anaphora resolution engine for dialogue-based Intelligen...
متن کاملA Machine Learning Approach to Anaphora Resolution in Dialogue based Intelligent Tutoring Systems
Anaphora resolution is a central topic in dialogue and discourse that deals with finding the referent of a pronoun. It plays a critical role in conversational Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) as it can increase the accuracy of assessing students’ mental model based on their natural language inputs. Although the task of anaphora resolution is one of the most studied problems in Natural Langua...
متن کاملSpoken Versus Typed Human and Computer Dialogue Tutoring
While human tutors typically interact with students using spoken dialogue, most computer dialogue tutors are text-based. We have conducted two experiments comparing typed and spoken tutoring dialogues, one in a human-human scenario, and another in a human-computer scenario. In both experiments, we compared spoken versus typed tutoring for learning gains and time on task, and also measured the c...
متن کاملITSPOKE: An Intelligent Tutoring Spoken Dialogue System
ITSPOKE is a spoken dialogue system that uses the Why2-Atlas text-based tutoring system as its “back-end”. A student first types a natural language answer to a qualitative physics problem. ITSPOKE then engages the student in a spoken dialogue to provide feedback and correct misconceptions, and to elicit more complete explanations. We are using ITSPOKE to generate an empirically-based understand...
