Abstract

In this paper, we present a new specification, implementation and evaluation of the "guess the card" system. This is a conversational system with spoken Spanish and vision capabilities that plays a game with members of the general public in a permanent stand at a science museum. The system has been built using a methodology and programming environment based on the notion of dialogue model specification and interpretation, that we have been developing over the years. The present system uses the latest version of the formalism and improves considerably over previous versions [8]. In particular, the present version takes advantage of the discourse structure, increases modularity, and incorporates general and flexible recovery strategies. An evaluation of the system is also presented.
