Information states in a multimodal dialogue system for human-robot conversation
Oliver Lemon, Anne Bracy, Alexander Gruenstein, Stanley Peters · 2001
We discuss the dialogue modelling techniques in the ongoing development of a dialogue system for multi-modal conversations with autonomous mobile robots. The dialogue system is implemented using Nuance, Gemini, and Festival language technologies under the Open Agent Architecture. This paper focusses on our general-purpose dialogue manager which implements a dynamic information state model of dialogue.
