Intelligent Advisor Agents in Distributed Environments
2011
The chapter presents a Distributed Expert System based on a multi-agent-architecture. The system is composed of a community of intelligent conversational agents playing the role of specialized advisors for the government of a virtual town, inspired to the SimCity game. The agents are capable to handle strategic decision under uncertainty conditions. They interact in natural language with their owners, obtain information on the current status of the town and give suggestions about the best strategies to apply in order to govern the town. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
A Modular Architecture for Adaptive ChatBots
2011
We illustrate an architecture for a conversational agent based on a modular knowledge representation. This solution provides intelligent conversational agents with a dynamic and flexible behavior. The modularity of the architecture allows a concurrent and synergic use of different techniques, making it possible to use the most adequate methodology for the management of a specific characteristic of the domain, of the dialogue, or of the user behavior. We show the implementation of a proof-of-concept prototype: a set of modules exploiting different knowledge representation techniques and capable to differently manage conversation features has been developed. Each module is automatically trigg…
Sub-Symbolic Knowledge Representation for Evocative Chat-Bots
2008
A sub-symbolic knowledge representation oriented to the enhancement of chat bot interaction is proposed. The result of the technique is the introduction of a semantic sub-symbolic layer to a traditional ontology-based knowledge representation. This layer is obtained mapping the ontology concepts into a semantic space built through Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) technique and it is embedded into a conversational agent. This choice leads to a chat-bot with “evocative” capabilities whose knowledge representation framework is composed of two areas: the rational and the evocative one. As a standard ontology we have chosen the well-founded WordNet lexical dictionary, while as chat-bot the ALICE a…
A combined semantic-syntactic sentence analysis for students assessment
2010
TutorJ is an Intelligent Tutoring System able to fulfill the requests of a student with a learning path inside didactical materials. To this aim, it must assess the level of training of the learner. In the first version of TutorJ this goal was reached through a conversational agent whose linguistic interaction enriched by a LSA-based text analysis. This approach suffers from the limitations of LSA as a bag-of- words approach. Next, morphosyntactic comparison of sentences' structures was implemented. In this paper we present a new version of the assessment procedure involving both semantic, and morphosyntactic analysis user's sentences.
A Modular Framework for Versatile Conversational Agent Building
2011
This paper illustrates a web-based infrastructure of an architecture for conversational agents equipped with a modular knowledge base. This solution has the advantage to allow the building of specific modules that deal with particular features of a conversation (ranging from its topic to the manner of reasoning of the chatbot). This enhances the agent interaction capabilities. The approach simplifies the chatbot knowledge base design process: extending, generalizing or even restricting the chatbot knowledge base in order to suit it to manage specific dialoguing tasks as much as possible.
A Multimodal Interaction Guide for Pervasive Services Access
2007
A pervasive, multimodal virtual guide for a cultural heritage site tour is illustrated. The guide is based on the integration of different technologies such as conversational agents, commonsense reasoning knowledge bases, multimodal interfaces and self-location detection systems. The aim of the work is to offer a more natural, context sensitive access to information with respect to traditional audio/visual pre-recorded guides. A prototype has been developed and implemented on a Qtek 9090 with Windows Mobile 2003 in order to deal with the "Museo Archeologico Regionale di Agrigento" domain.
Comandamenti europei e resistenze interne
2016
Lo studio analizza il ruolo della Corte europea rispetto a quello interno, ritenendo ormai definitivamente cambiato il rapporto "di forze" tra le due giurisdizioni, sebbene con distonie e non poche incertezze in punto di attuazione dei dicta europei. Vengono in particolare analizzati l'istituto del ne bis in idem, i principi del processo equitable nella versione di diritti fondamentali della persona e avanzate possibili soluzioni per orientamenti applicativi più in linea con i canoni accreditati dal giudice di Strasburgo.
L’Unione europea ed il Trattato di Lisbona: nuove frontiere per la tutela multilivello dei diritti
2010
Con il Trattato di Lisbona si aprono nuove frontiere per la tutela multilivello dei diritti, in quanto tale Trattato innova radicalmente il panorama dei rapporti tra fonti e Corti a livello nazionale, regionale ed internazionale. Due, in particolare, sono gli elementi da evidenziare: l’attribuzione di valore giuridico cogente alla Carta di Nizza, per il tramite dell’art. 6 § 2 del TUE, nonché la previsione della formale adesione dell’Unione alla CEDU. Si pone così un punto fermo all’interno di un dibattito che da decenni occupa la dottrina, e si manifesta la necessità di riflettere sulle conseguenze dell’adesione, soprattutto per quanto concerne i rapporti tra Corte di giustizia e Corte eur…
Dimorare con le voci degli antichi. La biblioteca nel Malpiglio secondo di Torquato Tasso
2021
In the dialogue Il Malpiglio secondo overo del fuggir la moltitudine, Tasso stages the dialogue between Forestiero Napolitano and Giovanlorenzo Malpiglio, son of Vincenzo Malpiglio, a gentleman of the court of Ferrara. The dialogue focuses on the function of the oratories, poets and of philosophers. The library of the young Malpiglio, located at the highest point of the house, in the most central place of the city, in fact it is not only the emblematic space of the identity recognition of the courteous gentleman and of his erudite education; it becomes the space of an uninterrupted dialogue with the voices of the authors, with which the reader entertains himself, appreciating order and vagu…
Introduzione
2022
SI tratta dell'introduzione alla sezione monografica della Rivista "InVerbis", dal titolo "Studiosi italiani e cinesi in dialogo tra lingua, letteratura e viaggi". Nella sezione sono presenti contributi di studiose e studiosi delle due estremità del continente euroasiatico, che riprendono e rinnovano la lunga tradizione degli studi sui contatti tra Italia e Cina che negli ultimi decenni si è andata consolidando grazie al contributo di numerose pubblicazioni. La sezione è articolata in quattro parti, le quali affrontano alcuni aspetti della complessa rete di rapporti che storicamente legano Cina e Italia, spaziando dalle questioni linguistiche a quelle traduttologiche, dalla glottodidattica …
