On Conversational Agents with Mental States
2015Embodied conversational agents (ECAs) have been put forward as a promising means for the training of social skills. The traditional approach to drive the behaviour of ECAs during human-agent dialogues is to use conversation trees. Although this approach is easy to use and very transparent, an important limitation of conversation trees is that the ...

Options for Reusing Agent Conversations
2002We present different options for storing elements of agent communication. We base our approach on the assumption that elements of a single agent conversation instance can serve multiple purposes. We consider mobile adaptive agents that visit several kinds of domains and perform tasks that require communication with local systems.

User-aware conversational agents
Companion Proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces, 2019Conversational agents are becoming increasingly popular. These systems present an extremely rich and challenging research space for addressing many aspects of user awareness and adaptation, such as user profiles, contexts, personalities, emotions, social dynamics, conversational styles, etc. Adaptive interfaces are of long-standing interest for the HCI

Modelling and visualizing agent conversations
Proceedings of the fifth international conference on Autonomous agents, 2001Although the notion of conversations has been discussed for some time as a way in which to provide an abstract representation of extended agent message exchange, there is still no consensus established concerning how to use these abstractions effectively.

Heuristic Evaluation of Conversational Agents
Proceedings of the 2021 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2021Conversational interfaces have risen in popularity as businesses and users adopt a range of conversational agents, including chatbots and voice assistants. Although guidelines have been proposed, there is not yet an established set of usability heuristics to guide and evaluate conversational agent design.

Survey of conversational agents in health
Expert Systems with Applications, 2019Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed the world and the relationships among humans as the learning capabilities of machines have allowed for a new means of communication between humans and machines. In the field of health, there is much interest in new technologies that help to improve and automate services in hospitals.

Influences and Embodied Conversational Agents
International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2004We aim at creating an Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) that would exhibit not only a consistent behavior with her personality and contextual environment factors but also that would be defined as an individual and not as a generic agent. The behavior of an agent depends not only on factors defining her individuality (such as her culture, her social ...

Extended Abstracts of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2019
In the last five years, work on software that interacts with people via typed or spoken natural language, called chatbots, intelligent assistants, social bots, virtual companions, non-human players, and so on, increased dramatically. Chatbots burst into prominence in 2016. Then came a wave of research, more development, and some use.
