Abstract

Not all user intentions can be extracted from the speech acts associated with an user utterance. Extra reasoning may be needed to interpret what the user said. We describe how interpretations can be generated using (i) the knowledge associated with each domain object; and (ii) the system's expectations. We also present a way of connecting interpretations to discourse obligations, from where system decisions are taken.
