Yes, we CAIR!
The project focuses on the development of a cloud-based system that facilitates interactive and inclusive group conversations between humans and artificial agents. With its innovative approach, our system aims to address the challenges of equal participation, dominance, and group dynamics in such discussions.
Through the application of advanced control policies, the system autonomously moderates group conversations, promoting balanced participation and fostering collaboration among participants. By analyzing the dialogue state, tracking individual preferences, and collecting statistical data, our system ensures an inclusive and engaging conversational experience for all.
