InproTK_S: A Toolkit for Incremental Situated Processing

摘要

In order to process incremental situated dialogue, it is necessary to accept information from various sensors, each tracking, in real-time, different aspects of the physical situation. We present extensions of the incremental processing toolkit In-PROTK which make it possible to plug in such multimodal sensors and to achieve situated, real-time dialogue. We also describe a new module which enables the use in InproTK of the Google Web Speech API, which offers speech recognition with a very large vocabulary and a wide choice of languages. We illustrate the use of these extensions with a description of two systems handling different situated settings.
