Abstract

When we start to engage machines in conversation, what language will it be? While natural language is our preferred means of communication, natural language processing is by no means trivial. An alternate approach is to look at augmenting Agent Communication Languages with a view to providing a middle ground between for speech-based interaction between man and machine. This paper presents such a system which has been implemented on Media Lab Europe's social robot "Joe".
