The DialPort tools
This work provides practical tools for the dialog research community, but it is incremental as it builds on existing infrastructure without introducing new methods or data.
The DialPort project developed a suite of tools and services, such as the DialPort Portal and DialCrowd, to address the needs of the dialog research community, with these resources being made freely available for ongoing use.
The DialPort project http://dialport.org/, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), covers a group of tools and services that aim at fulfilling the needs of the dialog research community. Over the course of six years, several offerings have been created, including the DialPort Portal and DialCrowd. This paper describes these contributions, which will be demoed at SIGDIAL, including implementation, prior studies, corresponding discoveries, and the locations at which the tools will remain freely available to the community going forward.
