Abstract
Conversational information seeking (CIS) is concerned with a sequence of interactions between one or more users and an information system. Interactions in CIS are primarily based on natural language dialogue, while they may include other types of interactions, such as click, touch, and body gestures. This monograph provides a thorough overview of CIS definitions, applications, interactions, interfaces, design, implementation, and evaluation. This monograph views CIS applications as including conversational search, conversational question answering, and conversational recommendation. Our aim is to provide an overview of past research related to CIS, introduce the current state-of-the-art in CIS, highlight the challenges still being faced in the community, and suggest future directions.
期刊介绍：
The surge in research across all domains in the past decade has resulted in a plethora of new publications, causing an exponential growth in published research. Navigating through this extensive literature and staying current has become a time-consuming challenge. While electronic publishing provides instant access to more articles than ever, discerning the essential ones for a comprehensive understanding of any topic remains an issue. To tackle this, Foundations and Trends® in Information Retrieval - FnTIR - addresses the problem by publishing high-quality survey and tutorial monographs in the field.
Each issue of Foundations and Trends® in Information Retrieval - FnT IR features a 50-100 page monograph authored by research leaders, covering tutorial subjects, research retrospectives, and survey papers that provide state-of-the-art reviews within the scope of the journal.
