description

Using conversations to understand influence and interactionOne of the main ways we influence each other is though conversation. Research in face-to-face interaction shows that automatically understanding conversations is a hard problem: success depends on our ability to model their structure and the context in which they're held. Matt & Stuart will present an overview of conversation research from academia, with social media examples from Chatterbox's Conversation Platform.Find more info at:http://chinwag.com/insight/psychology

face-to-face conversations• how do we make sense of conversation?

• e.g. detect decisions / action items in a meeting:

@cbanalyticscbanalytics.co.uk (soon: chatterbox.co)[email protected]

A: Are we going to have a backup? A: Or we do just–B: But would a backup really be necessary?A: I think maybe we could just go for the kinetic energy and be bold !and innovative. C: Yeah.B: I think– yeah. A: It could even be one of our selling points. C: Yeah –laugh–. D: Environmentally conscious or something. A: Yeah. B: Okay, fully kinetic energy. D: Good.

face-to-face conversations• if we ignore the structure, it’s hard to understand:

• c. 30% accuracy on detection of decision-related utterances• if we use the structure, we can do much better:

• c. 80% accuracy on detection of decisions
