Chat-Bot-Kit: A web-based tool to simulate text-based interactions between humans and with computers
Authors: Kyoko Sugisaki
AI-generated Key Points
- The Chat-Bot-Kit is a web-based tool designed for research purposes in computer-mediated communication (CMC).
- It enables language studies on text-based real-time chats, generating messages that are structured with language performance data such as pause and speed of keyboard-handling and the movement of the mouse.
- The tool provides two modes of chat communications - quasi-synchron and synchron modes - and various typing indicators.
- It is designed to be used in wizard-of-oz studies in Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and for the evaluation of chatbots (dialogue systems) in Natural Language Processing (NLP).
- The Chat-Bot Kit allows researchers to simulate text based interactions between humans and computers, providing a valuable resource for studying CMC.
- The generated messages can be analyzed for language performance data, allowing researchers to gain insights into how people communicate through text based chats.
- The tool's two modes of chat communications - quasi synchron and synchron modes - provide flexibility for different research needs.
- In addition to its use in CMC research, the Chat Bot Kit can also be used in wizard of oz studies in HCI.
- This approach involves simulating a dialogue system using human operators who respond to user inputs, allowing researchers to evaluate the effectiveness of different dialogue systems.
- Furthermore, the Chat Bot Kit can be used for evaluating chatbots or dialogue systems in NLP.
- Overall, it is a versatile tool that can be used by researchers across multiple fields interested in studying text based communication between humans and computers.
Abstract: In this paper, we describe Chat-Bot-Kit, a web-based tool for text-based chats that we designed for research purposes in computer-mediated communication (CMC). Chat-Bot-Kit enables to carry out language studies on text-based real-time chats for the purpose of research: The generated messages are structured with language performance data such as pause and speed of keyboard-handling and the movement of the mouse. The tool provides two modes of chat communications - quasi-synchron and synchron modes - and various typing indicators. The tool is also designed to be used in wizard-of-oz studies in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and for the evaluation of chatbots (dialogue systems) in Natural Language Processing (NLP).
