Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2006 in the subject Computer Science - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,1, University of Heidelberg (Seminar für Computerlinguistik; Institut für allgemeine und angewandte Sprachwissenschaft), language: English, abstract: In these days our daily life is more and more affected by computers, chips, electronic equipment, et cetera. Owing to this increase of technology, even in common everyday objects, like for example a fridge, it is necessary to find a simple and intuitive way to interact with complex technology. Natural language dialog systems could be the solution, or at least a part of it, how humans and machines could communicate or interact with each other. With the help of dialog systems people could access information and technical functionality of computers in a natural way using linguistic in- and output. One of the main tasks of such dialog systems is to provide fast and appropriate answers to user’s questions or requests. The challenge, therein, is how do we find these answers out of the flood of information.

Book excerpt: In these days our daily life is more and more affected by computers. For this reason it is necessary to find a simple and intuitive way to interact with complex technologies. Natural language dialog systems could be the solution how humans and machines could communicate with each other. One of the main tasks of such dialog systems is to provide fast and appropriate answers to user's questions. The challenge is: how do we find these answers out of the flood of information? Is there a way or an algorithm to find the appropriate answer to a given question? The author Christian Pretzsch gives, at first, an overview about the linguistically and theoretically background. Therein, among other things, the concepts: dialog, dialog systems, and ontology are introduced. Afterwards, answer selection and question-answering are elucidated, before the found results are tested for a concrete case study. This example and its evaluation is the base for an alternative approach. The illustrated algorithm could be a solution to realize answer selection in a fast and effective way. This book is addressed to students and all interested parties of Computational Linguistics, Computer Science, and Applied Linguistics.
Download or read book Ontologies and Adaptivity in Dialogue for Question Answering written by D. Sonntag and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Question answering (QA) has become one of the fastest growing topics in computational linguistics and information access. To advance research in the area of dialogue-based question answering, we propose a combination of methods from different scientific fields (i.e., Information Retrieval, Dialogue Systems, Semantic Web, and Machine Learning). This book sheds light on adaptable dialogue-based question answering. We demonstrate the technical and computational feasibility of the proposed ideas, the introspective methods in particular, by beginning with an extensive introduction to the dialogical problem domain which motivates the technical implementation. The ideas have been carried out in a mature natural language processing (NLP) system, the SmartWeb dialogue system, which was developed between 2004 and 2007 by partners from academia and industry. We have attempted to make this book a self-containing text and provide an extra section on the interdisciplinary scientific background. The target audience for this book comprises of researchers and students interested in the application potential of semantic technologies for difficult AI tasks such as working dialogue and QA systems.

Download or read book Introducing Spoken Dialogue Systems into Intelligent Environments written by Tobias Heinroth and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-07 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introducing Spoken Dialogue Systems into Intelligent Environments outlines the formalisms of a novel knowledge-driven framework for spoken dialogue management and presents the implementation of a model-based Adaptive Spoken Dialogue Manager(ASDM) called OwlSpeak. The authors have identified three stakeholders that potentially influence the behavior of the ASDM: the user, the SDS, and a complex Intelligent Environment (IE) consisting of various devices, services, and task descriptions. The theoretical foundation of a working ontology-based spoken dialogue description framework, the prototype implementation of the ASDM, and the evaluation activities that are presented as part of this book contribute to the ongoing spoken dialogue research by establishing the fertile ground of model-based adaptive spoken dialogue management. This monograph is ideal for advanced undergraduate students, PhD students, and postdocs as well as academic and industrial researchers and developers in speech and multimodal interactive systems.

Download or read book Ambient Intelligence Perspectives written by Peter Mickulecký and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ambient Intelligence Perspectives contains selected papers from the first international Ambient Intelligence Forum AmIF 2008 in Hradec Kraacute;loveacute;, Czech Republic. The forum is intended as the beginning of a series of rather broadly oriented discussion opportunities for discussing interdisciplinary, if not transdisciplinary aspects of rapidly evolving areas of Ambient Intelligence. Its aims were to review and discuss recent advances and promising research trends in AmI technology, intelligent environments, methods, middleware development, as well as applications in areas such as healthcare, product lifecycle and transport services. The intention to provide an opportunity of a very broad interaction among a wide rank of A01s coming from different surroundings means a great enrichment to all participants and gives ground to the success of the conference. Finally it led towards an interesting choice of three invited and twenty-five contributed papers, which are published in this book. All papers were carefully reviewed by the international program committee. Participants from twelve countries contributed to the scientific program and established a fruitful discussion atmosphere.
