Abstract

While key for human-robot interaction, natural language interpretation is a notoriously difficult task, especially because the interaction context is at the same time essential for dialogue understanding, difficult to build for machines, and depends on each speaker point of view. However, robots as embodied artifacts, can perceive their environment and interactors, and hence compute symbolic models from various perspectives. This allows in turn to build symbolic contexts for dialogues. In this paper, we introduce DIALOGS, a component for natural language interpretation that relies on these structured symbolic models of the world to ground verbal interaction.
