Abstract

A conversation management system includes: a training unit that generates an articulation speech act and an entity name of a training corpus, that generates a lexical syntactic pattern, and that estimates a speech act and an entity name of a training corpus; a database that stores the articulation speech act, the entity name, and the lexical syntactic pattern of the training corpus; an execution unit that generates an articulation speech act and an entity name of a user, that generates a user lexical syntactic pattern, that estimates a speech act and an entity name of a user, that searches for an articulation pair corresponding to a user articulation at the database using a search condition including the estimated user speech act and the generated user lexical syntactic pattern, and that generates a final response by selecting an articulation template using a restriction condition including an estimated entity name among the found articulation pair; and an output unit that outputs a final response that is generated by the execution unit.
