| Abstract [en]: |
Habitability and robustness have been noted as important qualities
of natural-language interfaces. In this paper we discuss how these requirements
can be met, in particular as regards the system's ability to support a coherent
and smooth dialogue. The discussion is based on current work on customizing
a dialogue system for three different applications.
We adopt a sublanguage approach to the problem and propose a method
for customization combining bottom-up use of empirical data with a global
pragmatic analysis of a given application. Finally, we suggest three design
principles that have emerged from our work called the sublanguage principle,
the asymmetry principle and the quantity principle. |
