Generating and Evaluating Landmark-Based Navigation Instructions in Virtual Environments
Conference Proceeding
Cercas Curry, A., Gkatzia, D., & Rieser, V. (2015)
Generating and Evaluating Landmark-Based Navigation Instructions in Virtual Environments. In Proceedings of the 15th European Workshop on Natural Language Generation, 90-94. https://doi.org/10.18653/v1/w15-4715
Referring to landmarks has been identified to lead to improved navigation instructions. However, a previous corpus study suggests that human “wizards” also choose to refer to ...
From the Virtual to the RealWorld: Referring to Objects in Real-World Spatial Scenes
Conference Proceeding

A Game-Based Setup for Data Collection and Task-Based Evaluation of Uncertain Information Presentation
Conference Proceeding
Gkatzia, D., Cercas Curry, A., Rieser, V., & Lemon, O. (2015)
A Game-Based Setup for Data Collection and Task-Based Evaluation of Uncertain Information Presentation. In Proceedings of the 15th European Workshop on Natural Language Generation, 112-113. https://doi.org/10.18653/v1/w15-4720
Decision-making is often dependent on uncertain data, e.g. data associated with confidence scores, such as probabilities. A concrete example of such data is weather data. We w...

Commonsense-enhanced Natural Language Generation for Human-Robot Interaction
Conference Proceeding
Gkatzia, D. (in press)
Commonsense-enhanced Natural Language Generation for Human-Robot Interaction
Commonsense is vital for human communication, as it allows us to make inferences without explicitly mentioning the context. Equipping robots with commonsense knowledge would l...
