Abstract

This paper introduces a new corpus of consulting dialogues, which is designed for training a dialogue manager that can handle consulting dialogues through spontaneous interactions from the tagged dialogue corpus. We have collected 130 h of consulting dialogues in the tourist guidance domain. This paper outlines our taxonomy of dialogue act annotation that can describe two aspects of an utterances: the communicative function (speech act), and the semantic content of the utterance. We provide an overview of the Kyoto tour guide dialogue corpus and a preliminary analysis using the dialogue act tags.
