Abstract

One of the major problems that might hinder the construction of the knowledge society on the information network is what I call the understanding and communication bottlenecks, which might be caused by the limitation of human cognitive capability. In this paper, I present Communicative Intelligence as a step towards solving the understanding and communication bottleneck by inventing communicative artifacts that enable people and artifacts to interact with each other in a natural fashion. I focus on conversational communications in particular, for conversation is the most natural means for communication. I believe that making conversation-rich community contributes a lot to resolve the understanding and communication bottlenecks. Intelligent media technology aims at inventing communicative artifacts which allow people and artifacts to interact with each other in a natural fashion and thereby enable conversation-rich knowledge society. It consists of five subfields: conversation measurement and analysis, conversational artifacts, conversational environment design, conversational contents, and applied conversational systems. I will overview major results obtained in each subfield.
