Aided design of finite-state dialogue management systems
2003
2003 International Conference on Multimedia and Expo. ICME '03. Proceedings (Cat. No.03TH8698)
Due to recent progresses in the field of speech and natural language processing, spoken dialogue systems are becoming more and more common. ...
In this paper we describe a graphical interface dedicated to ease the development of dialogue systems. ...
Actually, such a system may be systemled, user-led or mixed-initiative according to who controls the dialogue flow. ...

Adaptivity in speech-based multilingual e-mail client
2004
Proceedings of the third Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction - NordiCHI '04
ABSTRACT In speech interfaces users must be aware what can be done with the system -in other words, the system must provide information to help the users to know what to say. ...
To address this issue we have implemented different adaptive features that help the users in learning how such systems can be used. ...
Novice users and experienced users may want the interface to behave completely differently, for example to be system-initiative instead of mixed-initiative. ...

Mixing scripted interaction with task-oriented language processing in a conversational interface
1999
Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Intelligent user interfaces - IUI '99
Natural conversational interaction with computers will require systems that can successfully process unconstrained spoken input. ...
When users stray outside the supported domain, the system must still be able to respond to a "broad" range of plausible inputs to maintain basic conversational competency. ...
INTRODUCTION Interaction with computers by means of a spoken dialogue is likely to become commonplace in the not too distant future. ...

IEEE Intelligent Systems and their Applications
Mixed-initiative interaction is a key aspect of effective human-computer interaction and has great potential to affect work on multiagent systems. ...
The term mixed-initiative interaction is sometimes conflated with human-computer interaction itself, but this is a mistake because almost all models of HCI so far are not mixedinitiative, and mixed-initiative ...
