Title
AT&T help desk
Abstract
This paper introduces a new breed of natural language dialog applications which we refer to as the Help Desk. These voice- enabled applications are an evolution from Help Desk services that are currently available on the web or being supported by human agents. The goals of a voice-enabled Help Desk are to route calls to appropriate agents or departments, provide a wealth of information about various products and services, and conduct problem solving or troubleshooting. In this paper we address the challenges in building this class of applications particularly when speech data is limited or unavailable. We will present the TTS Help Desk as an example of a service that has been deployed for automating the customer care component of the AT&T Labs Natural Voices Business.
