Models for multiparty engagement in open-world dialog
Open accessAbstract
We present computational models that allow spoken dialog systems to handle multi-participant engagement in open, dynamic environments, where multiple people may enter and leave conversations, and interact with the system and with others in a natural manner. The models for managing the engagement process include components for (1) sensing the engagement state, actions and intentions of multiple agents in the scene, (2) making engagement decisions (i.e. whom to engage with, and when) and (3) rendering these decisions in a set of coordinated low-level behaviors in an embodied conversational agent. We review results from a study of interactions "in the wild" with a system that implements such a model.

The user's body pose can be used to estimate their intent to engage with an embodied agent.
“The user's body pose can be used to estimate their intent to engage with an embodied agent (Bohus and Horvitz, 2009; Sanghvi et al., 2011; Schwarz et al., 2014).”

Bohus and Horvitz found that by using a subset of these features, systems could learn to predict the moment of engagement or disengagement by as much as 4 seconds, implying that the body pose features that humans use to display an intent to engage or disengage happen over a surprisingly long span.

“Bohus and Horvitz (2009) built machine-learning models for predicting the measure of engagement through many features describing the user’s pose— how they were standing, whether they were facing the embodied agent, and how they had moved in the recent past with several different time-scales.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
