(2018)Spoken interaction with a machine results in a behaviour that is not very common in face-to-face human communication: Off-Talk, which is defined as speech utterances that are not directed to an immediate interlocutor, the ... -
Speech Rate Calculations with Short Utterances: A Study from a Speech-to-Speech, Machine Translation Mediated Map Task
