Combining Visual and Social Dialogue for Human-Robot Interaction
2021
We will demonstrate a prototype multimodal conversational AI system that will act as a receptionist in a hospital waiting room, combining visually-grounded dialogue with social conversation. The system supports visual object conversation in the waiting room (e.g. looking for available seats or personal belongings), task-based dialogues regarding navigation and check-in procedures in the hospital, as well as access to the latest news, and a quiz game about coronavirus. The prototype system therefore demonstrates how to weave together a wide range of natural, daily conversations with end users that vary in complexity; from complex visual dialogue to chitchat and quiz games, to task-oriented domain-specific conversations. We are currently able to demonstrate the system via a web-based interface. It will soon be deployed on the ARI robot in a hospital waiting room.
