Grad E: so this might be What next ?
Professor B: Well you tell me so in terms of the planner what s what s a good one to do ?
Grad E: Well let s th this go there or not I think is a good one Is a very basic one So what makes things more likely that
Professor B: Well the fir see the first thing is getting back to thing we left out of the other is the actual discourse So Keith this is going to get into your world because we are going to want to know you know which constructions indicate various of these properties s and so I I do not yet know how to do this I guess we are going to wind up pulling out discourse properties like we have object properties and we do not know what they are yet So that that the Go there decision will have a node from discourse and I guess why do not we just stick a discourse thing up there to be as a placeholder for
Grad E: We we also had discourse features of course for the endpoint and so again re that s completely correct we have the user model the situation model here we do not have the discourse model here yet Much the same way as we did not we do not have the ontology here
Professor B: Well the ontology we sort of said we would pull these various kinds of properties from the ontology like exhibiting selling and so forth So in some sense it s it s there But the discourse we do not have it represented at all yet
Grad E: This be specific for second year ? And and we probably will have something like a discourse for endpoint
Professor B: But if we do it will have the three values It will have the EVA values if if we have it
Grad E: OK just for starters and here discourse
Professor B: For Go there probably is true and false let s say That s what we talked about
Grad E: well I think we are looking at the the little data that we have so people say how do I get to the castle and this usually means they want to go there So this should sort of push it in one direction however people also sometimes say how do I get there in order to find out how to get there without wanting to go there And sometimes people say where is it because they want to know where it is but in most cases they probably
Professor B: but that does not change the fact that you are you want these two values
Grad E: Oh true So this is sort of some external thing that takes all the discourse stuff and then says here it s either pause yep yay A or nay OK ?
Professor B: And they will be a y a user Go there and maybe that s all I do not know
Grad D: Situation Go there I mean because it s whether it s open or not But that now that kind of what s the word the that interacts with the EVA thing if they just want to view it then it s fine to go there when it s closed whereas if they want to
Professor B: Right so that s that s where it starts getting to be essentially more interesting so what Bhaskara says which is completely right is if you know that they are only going to view it then it does not matter whether it s closed or not in terms of you know whether whether you want to go there
Grad C: It does matter though if there s like a strike or riot or something
Professor B: Absolutely there are other situational things that do matter
Grad D: Right So that s what I said just having one situational node may not be enough because this that node by itself would not distinguish
Professor B: Well i i it can have di various values but we eh you you are right it might not be enough
Grad D: I mean see I m I m thinking that any node that begins with `` Go there `` is either going to be true or false
Professor B: Ah I see that could be
Grad A: Also that node I mean the Go there s S node would just be fed by separate ones for you know there s different things the strikes and the
Grad D: Like situation traffic and so on
Professor B: So so now the other thing that Bhaskara eh pointed out is what this says is that there sh should be a link and this is where things are going to get very messy from the endpoint decision maybe the t they are final re and I guess the very bottom endpoint decision to the Go there node And I do not worry about layout I mean then we will go we will go nuts but
Grad D: Maybe we could have intermediate node that just the Endpoint and the Go there S node sort of fed into ? Right Because that s what we I mean that s why this situation comes up
Professor B: Well the Go there actually the Endpoint node could feed feed into the Go there S That s right make that up t t to the Go there then and again we will have to do layout at some point but something like that Now it s going to be important not to have loops by the way really important in in the belief worl net world not to have loops
Grad E: I was just going to How long does it take you to to compute
Professor B: No it s much worse than that It if i loo it it it it it s not def i it s not well defined if you are there are loops
Grad D: It things do not converge
Professor B: you just you have to there are all sorts of ways of breaking it up so that there is not OK
Grad E: but this is not this is this line is just coming from over here
Professor B: no it s not a loop yet I m just saying we we in no in
Grad D: Well but the good thing is we we could have loopy belief propagation which we all love | Grad E first started the topic about Go-there decision, and then proposed the question about how to represent discourse. Though Professor B insisted on using true-and-false values, Grad E challenged Professor B's opinion by taking examples about whether people really wanted to go some place or not when they asked how to get there. |

Project Manager: Now what what are our special features for the marketing ? That is really the voice recognition that is really unusual
Marketing: I think voice recognition is our big selling point because nobody else seems to have that in in this price range
Project Manager: And then and then the other thing would basically be sh shape or practicality of use
Marketing: well I think that everybodys going to say their remote control is practical I think we have to we have to dwell on on on the appearance We are really going to have the be the cutest remote control on the block So I think we have to play with the image play with the snail image play with the visual and then the voice recognition I think those are the two things to push The look and the voice recognition They are going to be our two selling points I am supposed to make a little presentation are not I ? | Voice recognition would be a major selling point as it was unusual and there were no remotes that had this function in the same price range. Another selling point would be its appearance as it would be the cutest remote control. The snail image could be used as a visual attraction. Practicality would not be one of its special features because all competition would feature this. |

#Person1#: Why is it that some children performed better than others at school?

#Person1#: The so called IQ tests?
