چکیده

In this paper, we present a dynamic semantics for dialogue in terms of commitments. We use this to provide a model theoretic treatment of ambiguity and its effects on the evolutions of commitments as a dialogue proceeds. Our first semantics ensures common commitments and has a simple logic for which we provide a complete axiomatization. On the other hand, our semantics poses difficulties for the analysis of particular dialogue moves, in particular acknowledgments, and of disputes. We provide a second semantics that addresses these difficulties.

We define grounding in terms of shared public commitments, and link public commitments to other, private, attitudes within a decidable dynamic logic for computing implicatures and predicting an agent’s next dialogue move.

Agreement is defined to be the shared entailments of the agents’ public commitments. We show that this makes pre...

A Persuasion Dialogue Game based on Commitments and Arguments

In this paper we propose a new persuasion dialogue game for agent communication. We show how this dialogue game is modeled by a framework based on social commitments and arguments. Called Commitment and Argument Network (CAN), this framework allows us to model communication dynamics in terms of actions that agents apply to commitments and in terms of argumentation relations. This dialogue game ...
