Dialogue systems as conversational partners: applying conversation acts theory to natural language generation for task-oriented mixed-initiative spoken dialogue
| Hi-index | 0.03 |
This paper presents an ongoing corpus annotation of speech acts in the domain of tourism, which falls within a wider project on multimodal question answering. An annotation scheme and set of guidelines are developed to mark information about parts of spoken utterances which require a response, distinguishing them from parts of utterances which do not. The corpus used for annotation consists of transcriptions of single-speaker utterances aimed at obtaining tourist information. Interannotator agreement is computed between two annotators to assess the reliability of the guidelines used to facilitate their task.
