Title
Management and evaluation of interactive dialog in the air travel domain
Abstract
This paper presents the Unisys Spoken Language System, as applied to the Air Travel Planning (ATIS) domain. This domain provides a rich source of interactive dialog, and has been chosen as a common application task for the development and evaluation of spoken language understanding systems. The Unisys approach to developing a spoken language system combines SUMMIT (the MIT speech recognition system [6]), PUNDIT (the Unisys language understanding system [3]) and an Ingres database of air travel information for eleven cities and nine airports (the ATIS database). Access to the database is mediated via a general knowledge-base/database interface (the Intelligent Database Server [4]). To date, we have concentrated on the language understanding and database interface components.
