    Abstract

    This paper discusses an approach to speech act analysis in the context of a theatre information and booking system which aims at exploiting as many superficial utterance clues as possible. These clues, combined with contextual informa­tion about the dialogue like the dialogue history and predictions derived from the current dialogue and from a test corpus, should enable us to model the course of a dialogue in such a way that a user feels comfortable with it (Dahlback & Jonsson 1986).
