ABSTRACT
Inspired by computational linguistic approaches to annotate the structures that occur in human dialogue, this paper describes a technique which encodes these structures as transformations applied to a protocol language. Agents can have a controlled mechanism to synthesise and communicate their interaction protocol during their participation in a multiagent system. This is in contrast to the approaches where agents must subscribe to a fixed protocol and relinquish control over an interaction that may not satisfy the agent's dialogical needs.

Standard Dialogue Structure and Frequent Patterns in the Agent Dialogue System
Distributed, Ambient and Pervasive InteractionsAbstractTo design a dialogue well and easily implement it into an autonomous dialogue system, a dialogue with simple components in which interaction with the partners is smoothly achieved is required. In designing interactions to use in an autonomous ...
Developing a Model of Agreement Negotiation Dialogue
IC3K 2016: Proceedings of the International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge ManagementWe are investigating human-human dialogues in the Estonian dialogue corpus with the further aim to develop a dialogue system which carries out negotiations with a user in a natural language. Two sub-corpora are analysed and compared: (1) MSN ...
Eyebrow raises in dialogue and their relation to discourse structure, utterance function and pitch accents in English
Face-to-face interaction involves both verbal and non-verbal communication. Studies have suggested a relationship between eyebrow raises and the verbal message, but our knowledge is still limited. If we could characterise a relation between eyebrow ...
