Summary
This paper presents a simple, yet effective model for managing attention and interaction control in multimodal spoken dialogue systems, allowing the user to switch attention between the system and other humans. A preliminary evaluation in a tutoring setting shows that the user’s attention can be effectively monitored using head tracking.
