Artificial Conversational Companions

This document describes the problem statement, the methodological framework, the current state of the work and the expected contribution of my doctoral dissertation. The main focus of my dissertation is long-term interaction with an Artificial Conversational Companion in the context of conversation training for second language acquisition. I use a data-driven approach and conversation analysis methods to build computational models for long-term interaction as a meaningful activity. I work on the concept of interaction profiles for human-agent interaction. The resulting models will be integrated in an AIML-based chatbot that helps to practice conversation in a foreign language.
