The book consists of four parts: Part I presents the background to conversational interfaces, examining past and present work on spoken language interaction with computers; Part II covers the various technologies that are required to build a conversational interface along with practical chapters and exercises using open source tools; Part III looks at interactions with smart devices, wearables, and robots, and then goes on to discusses the role of emotion and personality in the conversational interface; Part IV examines methods for evaluating conversational interfaces and discusses future directions. · Presents a comprehensive overview of the various technologies that underlie conversational user interfaces; · Combines descriptions of conversational user interface technologies with a guide to various toolkits and software that enable readers to implement and test their own solutions; · Provides a series of worked examples so readers can develop and implement different aspects of the technologies. 606 $aSignal processing 606 $aImage processing 606 $aSpeech processing systems 606 $aUser interfaces (Computer systems) 606 $aNatural language processing (Computer science) 606 $aSignal, Image and Speech Processing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24051 606 $aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18067 606 $aNatural Language Processing (NLP)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21040 615 0$aSignal processing. 615 0$aImage processing. 615 0$aSpeech processing systems. 615 0$aUser interfaces (Computer systems). 615 0$aNatural language processing (Computer science). 615 14$aSignal, Image and Speech Processing. 615 24$aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction. 615 24$aNatural Language Processing (NLP). 676 $a620 700 $aMcTear$b Michael$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0157528 702 $aCallejas$b Zoraida$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aGriol$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254237803321 996 $aThe Conversational Interface$92531919 997 $aUNINA
