Oh, Jeez! or Uh-huh? A Listener-aware Backchannel Predictor on ASR Transcriptions

Daniel Ortega, Chia-Yu Li, Ngoc Thang Vu

This paper presents our latest investigation on modeling backchannel in conversations. Motivated by a proactive backchanneling theory, we aim at developing a system which acts as a…

Modeling Speaker-Listener Interaction for Backchannel Prediction

Daniel Ortega, Sarina Meyer, Antje Schweitzer +1

We present our latest findings on backchannel modeling novelly motivated by the canonical use of the minimal responses Yeah and Uh-huh in English and their correspondent tokens in…

ADVISER: A Toolkit for Developing Multi-modal, Multi-domain and Socially-engaged Conversational Agents

Chia-Yu Li, Daniel Ortega, Dirk Väth +9

We present ADVISER - an open-source, multi-domain dialog system toolkit that enables the development of multi-modal (incorporating speech, text and vision), socially-engaged (e.g.…

Lexico-acoustic Neural-based Models for Dialog Act Classification

Daniel Ortega, Ngoc Thang Vu

Recent works have proposed neural models for dialog act classification in spoken dialogs. However, they have not explored the role and the usefulness of acoustic information. We pr…

Neural-based Context Representation Learning for Dialog Act Classification

Daniel Ortega, Ngoc Thang Vu

We explore context representation learning methods in neural-based models for dialog act classification. We propose and compare extensively different methods which combine recurren…
