An Iterative Data Collection Approach for Multimodal Dialogue Systems
Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2002)
Abstract
This paper deals with the way in which data for multimodal dialogue systems are collected. We argue that for multimodal data, an iterative data collection strategy should be followed. Instead of a single major data collection effort using a "Wizard of OZ" (WOZ) or "prompting" experimental setup, several smaller data collections should accompany the system development. We also describe the "script" experimental setup we developed. It is in between the WOZ and prompting setup, and can be used as a cost effective design for the first data collection within the iterative data collection strategy.
