For robots, where the form and non-vocal behaviour also strongly personify the system, we can see a clash between the two technologies. The many challenges in building responsive and interactive robots mean that language systems are often designed in a vacuum and when they are finally brought together can ruin the look, feel and sound of the completed system. This problem is intensified by natural language processing technology which can further add inappropriate behaviours following mythical business use cases, rather than exploring how users really would like to relate and use embodied artificial systems. In this positional paper, we present two studies in robot voice design and a non-vocal use case of the Honda Research Institute robot Haru. Finally, we ask the question what sort of voice should Haru have?","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121030142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, the reliance on single-source media narratives can lead to a biased and narrow perception of the world. Conversational interfaces, as a medium for delivering news stories, can help to address this problem by encouraging users to explore information resources and news stories by formulating curiosity driven comments and questions. We propose Inquisitive Mind (IM) - a conversational companion that proactively points out different narratives of the story, refers users to source materials, and encourages deeper exploration of the topic. We argue that IM could foster curiosity, encourage critical thinking, and effectively lead to more conscious media consumption.","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131914279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finding contextual meaning of the wake word 找到唤醒词的上下文含义

{"title":"Finding contextual meaning of the wake word","authors":"Hyunhoon Jung, Hyeji Kim","doi":"10.1145/3342775.3342805","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3342775.3342805","url":null,"abstract":"The 'wake word' can be considered one of the features that hinder natural conversation. Recently, tech companies such as Google and Amazon have developed features that enable the user to communicate with the virtual agent without a wake word. With this type of feature, conversation with a voice agent could be more natural, like Human-Human Conversation (HHC). However, the elimination of the wake word in a Voice User Interface (VUI) should be considered carefully, as it is perceived by users not only as technical feature, but also as a contextual feature. In this paper, we conducted a preliminary user study to understand how people use a wake word while interacting with their voice agent. We found out that users felt that they took control of the conversation with the voice agent by using the wake word. Furthermore, they tended to project negative feeling onto the wake word, because they usually convey negative with the wake word (e.g., to reset a failed conversation). Based on these findings, we discuss the contextual meaning of the wake word from the perspective of VUI design.","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116076450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While this is most often associated with alleviating concerns of driver distraction and cognitive load, the study explores whether the presence of conversation could, in and of itself, engender trust in the technology, based on our understanding of speech in humans. Thirty-four participants were transported in a fully-autonomous, self-driving 'pod' vehicle, accompanied by a natural-language, conversational interface ('UltraCab'), which was delivered using Wizard-of-Oz methodology. Emergent, trust-related themes were identified from the conversation that took place between participants and UltraCab, posing the question of whether participants sought an emotional connection with the vehicle, or whether conversation remained primarily functional. Implications for trust and the design of conversational interfaces are discussed.","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121056983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chatbots for customer service: user experience and motivation 客户服务的聊天机器人:用户体验和动机

Despite this trend, little in-depth research has been conducted on user experience and user motivation for this important application area of conversational interfaces. To close this research gap, we interviewed 24 users of two chatbots for customer service. Our results demonstrate the importance of such chatbots to efficiently provide adequate answers in response to simple enquiries. However, our results also show that the occasional lack of adequate answers does not necessarily produce a bad experience, as long as the chatbot offers an easy path for follow-up with human customer service representatives. In contrast to what is suggested in the existing literature on users' perceptions of conversational agents, this study's participants demonstrated realistic expectations of the chatbots' capabilities. Furthermore, we found that the human likeness of chatbots for customer service, while potentially of some relevance for user experience, is dwarfed in importance compared to such chatbots' ability to efficiently and adequately handle enquiries. As such, our findings serve to complement and extend current knowledge. On the basis of our findings, we suggest implications for theory and practice and point out avenues for future research.","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114119708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach was tested during the second instalment of the Amazon Alexa Prize 2018 (AP2018), both for the data collection and to feed a simple dialog system which would use the graph to provide answers. As users interacted with the system, a graph which maintained the structure of the dialogs was built, identifying parts where more coverage was needed. In an offline evaluation, we have compared the corpus collected during the competition with other potential corpora for training chatbots, including movie subtitles, online chat forums and conversational data. The results show that the proposed methodology creates data that is more representative of actual user utterances, and leads to more coherent and engaging answers from the agent. An implementation of the proposed method is available as open-source code.","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"38 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132953695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Progressivity for voice interface design 语音界面设计的进步性

Sikveland","doi":"10.1145/3342775.3342788","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3342775.3342788","url":null,"abstract":"Drawing from Conversation Analysis (CA), we examine how the orientation towards progressivity in talk-keeping things moving-might help us better understand and design for voice interactions. We introduce progressivity by surveying its explication in CA, and then look at how a strong preference for progressivity in conversation works out practically in sequences of voice interaction recorded in people's homes. Following Stivers and Robinson's work on progressivity, we find our data shows: how non-answer responses impede progress; how accounts offered for non-answer responses can lead to recovery; how participants work to receive answers; and how, ultimately, moving the interaction forwards does not necessarily involve a fitted answer, but other kinds of responses as well. We discuss the wider potential of applying progressivity to evaluate and understand voice interactions, and consider what designers of voice experiences might do to design for progressivity. Our contribution is a demonstration of the progressivity principle and its interactional features, which also points towards the need for specific kinds of future developments in speech technology.","PeriodicalId":408689,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Conversational User Interfaces","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134236885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
