Abstract

Spoken multimodal dialogue systems in which users address face-only or embodied interface agents have been gaining ground in research for some time. Although most systems are still strictly task-oriented, the field is now moving towards domain-oriented systems and real conversational systems which are no longer defined in terms of the task(s) they support. This paper describes the first running prototype of such a system which enables spoken and gesture interaction with life-like fairytale author Hans Christian Andersen about his fairytales, life, study, etc., focusing on multimodal conversation. We then present recent user test evaluation results on multimodal conversation.
