A Linguistically Motivated Approach to Hybrid Conversational AI with the FANTASIA Plugin
Antonio Origlia, Maria Di Maro · 2024
This paper presents an installation showcasing the basic concepts of the FANTASIA tool and the Interaction Model built around it. The tool itself can be used in a variety of ways, through the modular set of components it provides to extend the capabilities of a powerful engine for Real Time Interactive 3D applications, the Unreal Engine. The Interaction Model represents how FANTASIA can be used to build linguistically motivated models for dialogue management, going beyond the use of statistical learning only. Specifically, an explicit separation between language modelling capabilities and decision making will be described for movie recommendations.
