What Makes a Good Conversation? Challenges in Designing Truly Conversational Agents [PDF]
, 2019 Conversational agents promise conversational interaction but fail to deliver. Efforts often emulate functional rules from human speech, without considering key characteristics that conversation must encapsulate. Given its potential in supporting long-term human-agent relationships, it is paramount that HCI focuses efforts on delivering this promise. We

PLACES: Prompting Language Models for Social Conversation Synthesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Collecting high quality conversational data can be very expensive for most applications and infeasible for others due to privacy, ethical, or similar concerns. A promising direction to tackle this problem is to generate synthetic dialogues by prompting large language models. In this work, we use a small set of expert-written conversations as in-context

Transbordeur, 2019 Cet essai de l’artiste Jeff Guess réunit trois récits sur le fonctionnement de formes d’intelligence artificielle très différentes : la force de travail humaine invisible sur laquelle repose le machine learning, les structures de contrôle sous-jacentes aux teaching machines behavioristes, et un chimpanzé poussé à l’apprentissage du langage humain dans ...

Conversational End-to-End TTS for Voice Agent [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 End-to-end neural TTS has achieved superior performance on reading style speech synthesis. However, it's still a challenge to build a high-quality conversational TTS due to the limitations of the corpus and modeling capability. This study aims at building a conversational TTS for a voice agent under sequence to sequence modeling framework.

Radix Conversion for IEEE754-2008 Mixed Radix Floating-Point Arithmetic [PDF]
, 2013 Conversion between binary and decimal floating-point representations is ubiquitous. Floating-point radix conversion means converting both the exponent and the mantissa. We develop an atomic operation for FP radix conversion with simple straight-line algorithm, suitable for hardware design.

Interconnected Question Generation with Coreference Alignment and Conversation Flow Modeling [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 We study the problem of generating interconnected questions in question-answering style conversations. Compared with previous works which generate questions based on a single sentence (or paragraph), this setting is different in two major aspects: (1) Questions are highly conversational.

Eplett's theorem for self-converse generalised tournaments [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The converse of a tournament is obtained by reversing all arcs. If a tournament is isomorphic to its converse, it is called self--converse. Eplett provided a necessary and sufficient condition for a sequence of integers to be realisable as the score sequence of a self--converse tournament. In this paper we extend this result to generalised tournaments.

Common Conversational Community Prototype: Scholarly Conversational Assistant [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This paper discusses the potential for creating academic resources (tools, data, and evaluation approaches) to support research in conversational search, by focusing on realistic information needs and conversational interactions. Specifically, we propose to develop and operate a prototype conversational search system for scholarly activities.

CONVERSATIONS ON CONVERSING IN CHILD AND YOUTH CARE
International Journal of Child, Youth and Family Studies, 2012 In the spring of 2011, we had the pleasure of participating in the 3rd Child and Youth Care (CYC) in Action Conference hosted by the School of Child and Youth Care at the University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. We were invited by conference chairs Veronica Pacini-Ketchabaw and Jennifer White to participate in a roundtable discussion
