This project explores the development of a simple embodied dialog system designed for social interactions during the Italian card game Briscola. Focusing on the selection of non-verbal behaviors such as gestures and gazes, our approach incorporates a discourse model for coreference resolution, enhancing dialogue coherence. We utilize various NLP techniques including tokenization, part-of-speech tagging, and syntax analysis. Future directions include refining the discourse model and incorporating advanced heuristics for non-verbal cues. Join us in uncovering the complexity of human-like interactions in virtual environments.

Scenario and Goals • Scenario: • People playing a Card Game in a bar: • Briscola: Italian card game; • Conversation during the game: chat; • Goals Selection of Non-VerbalBehavior chatting: • Set of Gestures; • Gazes;
Approach (2 – cont.) • SituationalContext: • Discourse Model with Simple coreference resolution: • New and Evoked Discourse Entities; • KnowledgeBase (objects and characters in the scene); • Steps: • Tokenization; • Pos Tagging (Penn TreeBank PoS tagset); • SyntaxAnalysis (Noun Phrases, Verb Phrases and Pr eposition Phrases); • Coreference Resolution (Markers NEW and EVOKED Discourse Entities); • Information Structure: Rhematic and Thematic Part; • Heuristics BML Output.
Approach (3) • GameEvents: • People in a particular context (card game): • Turn Begin, Card Played, Match Rounds, etc… • Video, Observations and Annotation:
Demo • Joint Project with VirtualEnvironments course. • We apologize…but we still have Work in Progress!!!
Future Directions • Improved Discourse Model: • Gender and Numnber: Advanced Pos Tag set; • New Heuristics; • Selection of additional non-verbalbehaviors: • Facial Expressions; • Eyebrowns; • Postures; • …
