Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- We report a proof of concept text-based chat study which inserts spoof questions in a real time conversation in order to elicit participants reasoning. The results show that different questions are more or less effective at elicit- ing explicit enthymematic reasons, which is a technique that could be employed to augment conversational artificial intelligence systems to improve their reasoning abilities.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this paper we examine how people negotiate, interpret and repair the frame of reference (FoR) in free dialogues discussing spatial scenes. We describe a pilot study in which participants are given different perspectives of the same scene and asked to locate several objects that are only shown on one of their pictures. This task requires participants to coordinate on FoR in order to identify the missing objects. Preliminary results indicate that conversational participants align locally on FoR but do not converge on a global frame of reference. Misunderstandings lead to clarification sequences in which participants shift the FoR. These findings have implications for situated dialogue systems.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we examine how people assign, interpret, negotiate and repair the frame of reference (FoR) in online text-based dialogues discussing spatial scenes in English and Swedish. We describe our corpus and data collection which involves a coordination experiment in which dyadic dialogue participants have to identify differences in their picture of a visual scene. As their perspectives of the scene are different, they must coordinate their FoRs in order to complete the task. Results show that participants do not align on a global FoR, but tend to align locally, for sub-portions (or particular conversational games) in the dialogue. This has implications for how dialogue systems should approach problems of FoR assignment - and what strategies for clarification they should implement.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- We are interested in how participants align the frame of reference of spatial descriptions such as "to the left of the green cup" in dyadic text dialogues in English and Swedish when they perceive a scene from different locations. How do they identify if a misalignment has occurred, and what strategies do they use to get back on track? We show that there is no general preference of FoR in dialogue but the choice is related to the communicative acts of particular dialogue games (a sequence of dialogue moves centred towards a particular goal). There is also evidence that participants align their FoR locally over a sequence of turns, but not globally; at points of misunderstanding it may be prudent to shift FoR to get the conversation back on track. We isolate several conversational games where the dynamics of the FoR assignment appears to be linked to other properties of interaction between the agents, for example whether they are focusing on a particular part of the scene or whether they are identifying individual objects scattered around the scene. It follows that alignment is consistently used as a strategy but there are other factors that trigger changes in FoR.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we examine how people negotiate, interpret and repair the frame of reference (FoR) in online text based dialogues discussing spatial scenes in Swedish. We describe work-in-progress in which participants are given different perspectives of the same scene and asked to locate several objects that are only shown on one of their pictures. This task requires participants to coordinate on FoR in order to identify the missing objects. This study has implications for situated dialogue systems.
