[Corpora-List] Task-based Dialogue Comparable Corpora

[Raffaella Bernardi]

Hi,

At the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, we have had on line a  
multilingual chatter bot (English, Italian and German) -- BoB (Bolzano  
Bot) -- to answer user questions about the Library of FUB:

http://web.inf.unibz.it/bob/?popup=yes&language=en

It has been online since October 2008 for English, since February 2009  
for German and since September 2009 for Italian.

We are now working on cleaning up the logs from personal names for  
privacy reasons. Let me know if they can be of help. We have also  
annotated the logs with info such as: Topic Continuation, Topic Shift,  
etc.. More detailed info will be posted as soon as the logs are  
available --- hopefully by end of May.

The project has been carried out by KRDB members together with the  
University Library staff.
