Title: Automatic dialogue act recognition using a dynamic Bayesian network
Authors: Dielmann, Alfred

Issue Date: 2007
Citation: A. Dielmann and S. Renals. Automatic dialogue act recognition using a dynamic Bayesian network. In S. Renals, S. Bengio, and J. Fiscus, editors, Proc. Multimodal Interaction and Related Machine Learning Algorithms Workshop (MLMI-06), pages 178-189. Springer, 2007.
Abstract: We propose a joint segmentation and classification approach for the dialogue act recognition task on natural multi-party meetings (ICSI Meeting Corpus). Five broad DA categories are automatically recognised using a generative Dynamic Bayesian Network based infrastructure. Prosodic features and a switching graphical model are used to estimate DA boundaries, in conjunction with a factored language model which is used to relate words and DA categories. This easily generalizable and extensible system promotes a rational approach to the joint DA segmentation and recognition task, and is capable of good recognition performance.
