-====== Progress Report ======+====== Architecture Description ======
  
-[[Progress Report]] - dal jsem to na zvlastni stranku, abysme si nelezli do zeli+Czech Companion follows the original idea of Reminiscing about the User's Photos, 
 +taking advantage of the data collected in the first phase of the project (using a Wizard-of-Oz setting). The full recorded corpora was transcribed, manual speech reconstruction was done on 92.6% of utterances((still in progress)) and a pilot dialog acts annotation was performed on sample of 1000 sentences.
  
 +The architecture is the same as in the English version, i.e. a set of modules communicating through the Inamode (TID) backbone. However, the set of modules is different, see Figure 1. Regarding the physical settings, the Czech version runs on two notebook computers connected by a local network. One serves as a Speech Client, running modules dealing with ASR, TTS and ECA; the other one as an NLP Server. 
  
-[[http://72.55.153.148/mediawiki-1.8.2/index.php/CZ_Demo_%28November_2009%29_Specs_and_Components_%282009-07-17%29#Natural_Language_Generation_.28WP_5.4.29|final version of description]]+The NLU pipeline, DM, and NLG modules at the NLP Server are implemented using a CU's own TectoMT platform that provides access to a single in-memory data representation through common API. This eliminates the overhead of repeated serialization and XML parsing that an Inamode based solution would impose otherwise.
  
-====== Description of Czech Companion November Demonstrator ======+The Knowledge Base consists of objects (persons, events, photos) that model the information acquainted in the course of dialog. Those objects also provide very basic reasoning (e.g. accounting for the link between date of birth and age properties). Each object's property is able to store multiple values with varying level of confidence((Provided either by ASR module or from lexical clues contained in respective utterance.)), and values restricted to a defined time span.
  
-The Czech version of the Companion deals with the Reminiscing about User's Photos scenario, taking advantage of data recorded in first phase of the project. The basic architecture is same as of the English version, i.e. set of modules communicating through the Inamode Relayer (TID) backbone; however the set of modules is different (see Figure 1). Regarding the physical settings, the Czech version runs on two notebook computers connected by a local network; one can be seen as a Speech Client, running modules dealing with ASR, TTS and ECA, second as an NLP Server. 
  
-The dialog is driven by a dialog manager component by USFD (originally developed for the English Senior Companion prototype), we supply the transition network (DAFs). The selection is backed by (a) appropriateness for the type of dialog we aim for (the corpus reveals frequent reoccurring topics to be handled by DAFs) , (b) availability of mature package within time frame that allows for integration, (c) possibility of reusing created DAF states, tests and specified actions for the upcoming statistical DM by UOXF (however this is post November work).+====== Progress Report ======
  
-Our DAFs covering selected topics contain not only Companion replies mined from the corpora, but also new human-authored assessments, remarks and glosses to provide longer system utterances in order to encourage user to tell more. +[[Progress Report]] - dal jsem to na zvlastni stranku, abysme si nelezli do zeli
