Probabilistic Type Theory for Incremental Dialogue Processing
Julian Hough, Matthew Purver · 2014
We present an adaptation of recent work on probabilistic Type Theory with Records (Cooper et al., 2014) for the purposes of modelling the incremental semantic processing of dialogue participants.After presenting the formalism and dialogue framework, we show how probabilistic TTR type judgements can be integrated into the inference system of an incremental dialogue system, and discuss how this could be used to guide parsing and dialogue management decisions.
