This paper identifies stylistic differences in instruction-giving observed in a corpus of human-robot dialogue. Differences in verbosity and structure (i.e., single-intent vs. mult…
ScoutBot: A Dialogue System for Collaborative Navigation
Stephanie M. Lukin, Felix Gervits, Cory J. Hayes +7
ScoutBot is a dialogue interface to physical and simulated robots that supports collaborative exploration of environments. The demonstration will allow users to issue unconstrained…
Laying Down the Yellow Brick Road: Development of a Wizard-of-Oz Interface for Collecting Human-Robot Dialogue
Claire Bonial, Matthew Marge, Ron artstein +11
We describe the adaptation and refinement of a graphical user interface designed to facilitate a Wizard-of-Oz (WoZ) approach to collecting human-robot dialogue data. The data colle…
Applying the Wizard-of-Oz Technique to Multimodal Human-Robot Dialogue
Matthew Marge, Claire Bonial, Brendan Byrne +4
Our overall program objective is to provide more natural ways for soldiers to interact and communicate with robots, much like how soldiers communicate with other soldiers today. We…
