Contrasting the interaction structure of an email and a telephone corpus
2009
Proceedings of the SIGDIAL 2009 Conference on The 10th Annual Meeting of the Special Interest Group on Discourse and Dialogue - SIGDIAL '09
unpublished
We present a dialogue annotation scheme for both spoken and written interaction, and use it in a telephone transaction corpus and an email corpus. ...
We train classifiers, comparing regular SVM and structured SVM against a heuristic baseline. We provide a novel application of structured SVM to predicting relations between instance pairs. ...
We then use three algorithms, two of which use machine learning (including a novel approach to using Structured SVM), to predict labels and links (a generalization of adjacency pairs) on unseen data. ...

Schemas and the frequency/acceptability mismatch: Corpus distribution predicts sentence judgments
2020
Cognitive Linguistics
While a formal model makes no prediction with regard to gradient acceptability of bare ("grammatical") go/come-v, the usage-based view assumes that acceptability is a function of compatibility with an ...
AbstractA tight connection between competence and performance is a central tenet of the usage-based model. ...

Influence of contextual information in emotion annotation for spoken dialogue systems
2008
Speech Communication
We have carried out experiments with a corpus extracted from real human interactions with a spoken dialogue system. ...
Results show that the performance of non-expert human annotators and machine-learned classifications are both affected by contextual information. ...

Automatic analysis of multiparty meetings
2011
Sadhana (Bangalore)
We discuss the capture and annotation of the AMI meeting corpus, the development of a meeting speech recognition system, and systems for the automatic segmentation, summarisation and social processing ...
This is a challenging task since the meetings consist of spontaneous and conversational interactions between a number of participants: it is a multimodal, multiparty, multistream problem. ...
The corpus has been heavily annotated by hand, primarily to provide ground truth for machine learning. ...

Survey on Evaluation Methods for Dialogue Systems
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper we survey the methods and concepts developed for the evaluation of dialogue systems. Evaluation is a crucial part during the development process. ...
Often, dialogue systems are evaluated by means of human evaluations and questionnaires. However, this tends to be very cost and time intensive. ...
We would also like to thank our anonymous reviewers for their valuable reviews that helped improve the quality of this survey. ...

Discovering habits of effective online support group chatrooms
2012
Proceedings of the 17th ACM international conference on Supporting group work - GROUP '12
Through machine learning analysis of these annotations, we demonstrate that while sentiment predicts a user's stress at the beginning of a chat, dynamic views of efficacy are stronger indicators of stress ...
Typically, demonstrating such claims about social interaction would be approached through the lens of sentiment analysis. ...

Recognition of Dialogue Acts in Multiparty Meetings Using a Switching DBN
2008
IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language Processing
We have carried out experiments on the AMI corpus of multimodal meeting recordings, using both manually transcribed speech, and the output of an automatic speech recogniser, and using different configurations ...
This generative approach models a set of features, related to lexical content and prosody, and incorporates a weighted interpolated factored language model. ...
DA labels may incorporate syntactic, semantic and pragmatic factors: in addition to providing information about the structure of a dialogue and the course of a conversation, DAs are also able to capture ...
