Abstract : We describe a new corpus of over 180,000 hand- annotated dialog act tags and accompanying adjacency pair annotations for roughly 72 hours of speech from 75 naturally-occurring meetings. We provide a brief summary of the annotation system and labeling procedure, inter-annotator reliability statistics, overall distributional statistics, a description of auxiliary files distributed with the corpus, and information on how to obtain the data.

In the tourism domain, a simple question such as "Where is the castle?" may be interpreted solely as a request for the castle's location. More often, as our data indicate, such a question is used to ask for directions to the specified object. A felicitous response to such a request may depend not only on the questioner's current location but also on other contextual features, such as the weather, traffic conditions, mode of transportation, and time. This paper describes experimental results supplying factors relevant to such context dependent analysis and a corresponding model that can be employed to increase the conversational abilities of dialogue systems.

Most dialogue architectures are either pipelined or, if agent-based, are restricted to a pipelined flow-of-information. The TRIPS dialogue architecture is agent-based and asynchronous, with several layers of information flow. We present this architecture and the synchronization issues we encountered in building a truly distributed, agent-based dialogue architecture.

The Why-Atlas tutoring system presents students with qualitative physics questions and encourages them to explain their answers via natural language. Although there are inexpensive techniques for analyzing explanations, we claim that better understanding is necessary for use within tutoring systems. In this paper we describe how Why-Atlas creates and utilizes a proof-based representation of student essays. We describe how it creates the proof given the output of sentence-level understanding, how it uses the proofs to give students feedback, some preliminary runtime measures, and the work we are currently doing to derive additional benefits from a proof-based approach for tutoring applications.

We present a new framework for rapid development of mixed-initiative dialog systems. Using this framework, a developer can author sophisticated dialog systems for multiple channels of interaction by specifying an interaction modality, a rich task hierarchy and task parameters, and domain-specific modules. The framework includes a dialog history that tracks input, output, and results. We present the framework and preliminary results in two application domains.

Recently developed markup tools for dialogue work are quite sophisticated and require considerable knowledge and overhead, but older tools do not support XML standoff markup, the current annotation style of choice. For the DIAG-NLP project we have created a "lightweight" but modern markup tool that can be configured and used by the working NLP researcher.

This paper presents work on using Bayesian networks for the dialogue act recognition module of a dialogue system for Dutch dialogues. The Bayesian networks can be constructed from the data in an annotated dialogue corpus. For two series of experiments - using different corpora but the same annotation scheme - recognition results are presented and evaluated.
