REPORT IM2.MDM-07 Speciflcation of a Shallow Dialogue Analysis Model: SDA
Andréi Popescu-Belis · 2004
This report defines a shallow dialog analysis model for use in the context of human dialogue processing applications. The present application concerns meeting recording, processing and retrieval. The model groups together the following elements: dialogue segmentation into utterances and episodes, detection of dialogue acts and adjacency pairs, and detection of referring expressions, including named entities, and their coreference links (in a first stage, references to documents only). Definitions, annotations guidelines, and links to tools are provided for these phenomena, as well as an instantiated XML annotation model based on boundaries, labels and links.
