An automatic dialogue system generator from the internet information contents

Masahiro Araki, Tasuku Ono, Kiyoshi Ueda, Takuya Nishimoto, Yasuhisa Niimi

We propose a semi-automatic dialogue system generator from the Internet information contents. We classify the practical Web site into three classes of task: slot-filling, database search, and explanation. Using three levels of dialogue library for each task, our generator translates XML based Web site into VoiceXML, which controls a conversation between a user and a computer system. In this paper, we explain an outline of our project and report implementation examples.
