Personified Robotic Chatbot Based On Compositional Dialogues
Original language description
We present a novel chatbot architecture implemented in the humanoid robot Pepper that is capable to communicate in natural language in a compositional fashion. Compared to the previous solutions based either on question answering pairs or dialogue trees, we propose a novel method which constructs the dialogue from atomic blocks that can be applied interchangeably. It thus allows the creation of hundreds of meaningful dialogues from only a few building blocks. Most of the dialogues are focused on the user preferences and opinions which are stored in a database and translated into feature vectors. The chatbot is able to compare these preferences with other users or with data from the internet so that it can be used as a crowd-based recommendation system. To improve the user experience, the chatbot has its own personification in the form of predefined opinions and preferences for each question asked during the communication. The embodiment of the chatbot in the humanoid robot enables further improvements in the interaction. We report results from a preliminary evaluation with a group of volunteers that compared our chatbot with a different system.
