Title: A coding manual for the
Linköping dialogue model
Further information can be found in:
Number of annotators:
None at the moment. Previously,
four people used the scheme.
The dialogues has been analyzed
by linguists, a psychologist and computer scientsits. However, the main
work on tagging the dialogues was done by two students, one cognitve science
student and one computer science student.
Number of annotated corpora:
The corpus used when developing
Linlin consists of 30 dialogues with 1749 utterances. The dialogue model
was also applied to 100 SUNDIAL dialogues with around 700 utterances and
to 10 Waxholm dialogues with around 400 utterances. (all Swedish)
Evaluations of scheme:
No k
-statistic is available for the LinLin scheme, but in a pairwise
agreement for LinLin1 97% was achieved.
Underlying task:
LinLin was designed to a written
human-to-(simulated)computer information retrieval dialogue. It is now
also applied to the AIRPLANE corpus with a human-to-human instructional
dialogue.
List of phenomena annotated:
Example:
S: | [Welcome to Cardata] DO |
U: | [show mercedes] Q |
S: | [Wait...]
DC
[Cardata can answer questions about a number of car models, concerning manufacturer, model, year, country of manufacturing, disposition to rust and size class as well as question about price, security, space and technical data.] A [Any particular wishes?] Q |
U: | [cost and space] A |
... |
Mark-up language:
Nb's mark-up language (pseudo-SGML
- not fully compliant)
Existence of annotation tools:
Nb (NotaBene) for coding, perlscript
for analysis.
Usability:
Used in the S-DIME (Swedish
dialogue move engine) project.
