extraordinary future. Spoken, Multilingual and Multimodal
Dialogues Systems: Development and Assessment addresses the
great demand for information about the development of advanced
dialogue systems combining speech with other modalities under a
multilingual framework. It aims to give a systematic overview of
dialogue systems and recent advances in the practical application
of spoken dialogue systems.
Spoken Dialogue Systems are computer-based systems developed to
provide information and carry out simple tasks using speech as the
interaction mode. Examples include travel information and
reservation, weather forecast information, directory information
and product order. Multimodal Dialogue Systems aim to overcome the
limitations of spoken dialogue systems which use speech as the only
communication means, while Multilingual Systems allow interaction
with users that speak different languages.
* Presents a clear snapshot of the structure of a standard
dialogue system, by addressing its key components in the context of
multilingual and multimodal interaction and the assessment of
spoken, multilingual and multimodal systems
* In addition to the fundamentals of the technologies employed,
the development and evaluation of these systems are described
* Highlights recent advances in the practical application of
spoken dialogue systems
This comprehensive overview is a must for graduate students and
academics in the fields of speech recognition, speech synthesis,
speech processing, language, and human-computer interaction
technolgy. It will also prove to be a valuable resource to system
developers working in these areas.
Ramón López-Cózar Delgado is Associate Professor in the Department of Languages and Computer Systems, Computer Science Faculty, Granada University, Spain. He has published over 30 papers in international journals and conferences concerned with dialogue systems. He is member of the COST Action 278 "Spoken Language Interaction in Telecommunications" Masahiro Araki is an Associate Professor at Department of Electronics and Information Science, Kyoto Institute of Technology. His current interests are spoken dialogue processing and artificial intelligence. He is a member of ACL and ISCA. João P. Neto is Assistant Professor at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Technical University of Lisbon in signal theory, discrete signal processing, control systems and neural networks.
