我们描述了一个称为DiscoRT的中间件系统的设计、实现和使用，以支持虚拟和机器人对话代理的开发。该系统的用例包括处理会话和基于事件的中断，以及支持话轮转换、反向通道、定向凝视和人脸跟踪等参与度维护行为。该系统的多线程架构包括“硬”和“软”实时调度，并与现有的协作会话管理器DISCO集成在一起。我们已经使用该系统构建了一个实质性的对话代理，即将进行长期的实地研究。参与；中断；话轮转换；反向通道；插话；图式；BML；仲裁。
We describe the design, implementation and use of a middleware system, called DiscoRT, to support the development of virtual and robotic conversational agents. The use cases for this system include handling conversational and event-based interruptions, and supporting engagement maintenance behaviors, such as turn-taking, backchanneling, directed gaze and face tracking. The multi-threaded architecture of the system includes both “hard” and “soft” real-time scheduling and integrates with an existing collaborative discourse manager, called Disco. We have used the system to build a substantial conversational agent that is about to undergo long-term field studies.
