[abstract] [pdf]Abstract: Although Sweden has yet to allocate
funds specifically intended for CLARIN
activities, there are some ongoing activities which are directly relevant to
CLARIN, and which are explicitly linked
to CLARIN. These activities have been
funded by the Committee for Research Infrastructures and its subcommittee DISC
(Database Infrastructure Committee) of
the Swedish Research Council.Beskow, J., Carlson, R., Edlund, J., Granström, B., Heldner, M., Hjalmarsson, A., & Skantze, G. (2009). Multimodal Interaction Control. In Waibel, A., & Stiefelhagen, R.

[abstract] [pdf]Abstract: This paper introduces the EU-FP7 project CLARIN, a joint effort of over 150 institutions in Europe, aimed at the creation of a sustainable language resources and technology infrastructure for the humanities and social sciences research community. The paper briefly introduces the vision behind the project and how it relates to speech research with a focus on the contributions that CLARIN can and will make to research in spoken language processing.Carlson, R., & Gustafson, K.

[abstract] [pdf]Abstract: Most current work on spoken human-computer interaction has so far concentrated on interactions between a single user and a dialogue system. The advent of ideas of the computer or dialogue system as a conversational partner in a group of humans, for example within the CHIL-project1 and elsewhere (e.g. Kirchhoff & Ostendorf, 2003), introduces new requirements on the capabilities of the dialogue system. Among other things, the computer as a participant in a multi-part conversation has to appreciate the human turn-taking system, in order to time its' own interjections appropriately. As the role of a conversational computer is likely to be to support human collaboration, rather than to guide or control it, it is particularly important that it does not interrupt or disturb the human participants. The ultimate goal of the work presented here is to predict suitable places for turn-takings, as well as positions where it is impossible for a conversational computer to interrupt without irritating the human interlocutors.Skantze, G., Edlund, J., & Carlson, R.

[abstract] [pdf]Abstract: This paper presents the current status of the research in the Higgins project and provides background for a demonstration of the spoken dialogue system implemented within the project. The project represents the latest development in the ongoing dialogue systems research at KTH. The practical goal of the project is to build collaborative conversational dialogue systems in which research issues such as error handling techniques can be tested empirically.2005

[abstract] [pdf]Abstract: In this paper, an overview of the Higgins project and the research within the project is presented. The project incorporates studies of error handling for spoken dialogue systems on several levels, from processing to dialogue level. A domain in which a range of different error types can be studied has been chosen: pedestrian navigation and guiding. Several data collections within Higgins have been analysed along with data from Higgins' predecessor, the AdApt system. The error handling research issues in the project are presented in light of these analyses.Lacerda, F., Sundberg, U., Carlson, R., & Holt, L. (2004).

[abstract] [pdf]Abstract: A general overview of the AdApt project and the research that is performed within the project is presented. In this project various aspects of human-computer interaction in a multimodal conversational dialogue systems are investigated. The project will also include studies on the integration of user/system/dialogue dependent speech recognition and multimodal speech synthesis. A domain in which multimodal interaction is highly useful has been chosen, namely, finding available apartments in Stockholm. A Wizard-of-Oz data collection within this domain is also described.1999

applied in text-to-speech svstems. We also find that such models are slowly introduced in speech understanding
systems. We will also discuss the notion of local speech tempo and the need to connect linguistic factors to low-level
models. We will also discuss speaker-dependent parameters such as vowel-consonant ratio.Carlson, R. (1991). Some notes about research and development at KTH.
