| １． |
Outline |
|
This course provides you the knowledge about theory and element technology to construct a spoken dialog system which retrieves crucial information during human-computer dialog to solve speaker's problem. To understand element technology and architecture of dialog system, you will also learn the foundation of modeling human dialog and a standard and techniques to implement dialog systems.
Through exercises in the analysis of recording materials of your own dialog, you will deepen your understanding of processing the human conversation. In the last class of this course, you will read some research papers on current topics of dialog analysis or dialog system to catch up trends in this area.
This course follows DP1 in the diplomat policies of the faculty.

| ２． |
Objectives |
|
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
(1) understand and explain how to calculate human communications that construct the dialog system
(2) describe each component of the current spoken dialog system and explain its strength and weakness.

Grading Policy |
|
Grade will be computed as follows:
- notes 40%
- Weekly assignments and reports 60%
You can receive a credit if you obtain 60% and above.
