Investigating Speech Features for Continuous Turn-Taking Prediction Using LSTMs
Matthew Roddy, Gabriel Skantze, Naomi Harte
For spoken dialog systems to conduct fluid conversational interactions with users, the systems must be sensitive to turn-taking cues produced by a user. Models should be designed s…
