Conversational Interfaces for Search As Learning. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Searching the web to learn new things or gain knowledge has become a common activity. Recent advances in conversational user interfaces have led to a new research opportunity - that of analyzing the potential of conversational interfaces in improving the effectiveness of search as learning (SAL). Addressing this knowledge gap, in this position paper we

Conversational interfaces: advances and challenges

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2000
The past decade has witnessed the emergence of a new breed of human-computer interfaces that combines several human language technologies to enable humans to converse with computers using spoken dialogue for information access, creation and processing. In this paper, we introduce the nature of these conversational interfaces and describe the underlying

Grounding behaviours with conversational interfaces: effects of embodiment and failures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal on Multimodal User Interfaces, 2021
Conversational interfaces that interact with humans need to continuously establish, maintain and repair common ground in task-oriented dialogues. Uncertainty, repairs and acknowledgements are expressed in user behaviour in the continuous efforts of the ...

Collaborative conversational interfaces

International Journal of Speech Technology, 1998
This paper proposes a method of designing human-computer speech interfaces based on principles of human conversation. It argues that conversation is the primary mode of language use and that it is fundamentally collaborative. Speech interfaces should therefore be designed to recreate the collaborative nature of natural conversations. The paper presents

Embodiment in conversational interfaces

Proceedings of the SIGCHI conference on Human factors in computing systems the CHI is the limit - CHI '99, 1999
In this paper, we argue for embodied corrversational characters as the logical extension of the metaphor of human - computer interaction as a conversation. We argue that the only way to fully model the richness of human I&+ to-face communication is to rely on conversational analysis that describes sets of conversational behaviors as fi~lfilling ...

Conversational User Interfaces

it - Information Technology, 2004
Self-service systems, online help systems, web services, mobile communication devices, remote control systems, and dashboard computers are providing ever more functionality. However, along with greater functionality, the user must also come to terms with the greater complexity and a steeper learning curve.

Virtual conversations: An interface to knowledge

IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 2003
Conversim is a voice-activated multimedia model that gives users the illusion of having a conversation with a real person whose prestored images deliver spontaneous responses to queries.
