Title
Speech-Plans: Generating Evaluative Responses in Spoken Dialogue
Abstract
Recent work on evaluation of spoken dialogue systems indicates that better algorithms are needed for the presentation of complex in- formation in speech. Current dialogue sys- tems often rely on presenting sets of options and their attributes sequentially. This places a large memory burden on users, who have to remember complex trade-offs between mul- tiple options and their attributes. To address these problems we build on previous work using multiattribute decision theory to devise speech-planning algorithms that present user- tailored summaries, comparisons and recom- mendations that allow users to focus on crit- ical differences between options and their at- tributes. We discuss the differences between speech and text planning that result from the particular demands of the speech situation.
