Prof. Dr. David Traum
Aspects of Information State for Dialogue with Virtual Humans.
This talk will look in-depth at some aspects of the dialogue manager for
a set of Virtual Humans at the Institute for Creative Technologies.
Virtual Humans are AI agents with humanoid bodies in a virtual reality
setting, who interact with people and a virtual world. These agents are
used primarily in training prototypes, where they must play the role of
a character in a scenario. We will go over the approach to organizing
information state, the broad processing algorithms, and focus in detail
on several aspects, including turn-taking, grounding, social obligations
management, and negotiation." |
