This is the public CALO home page for the CSLI Semlab team.
We are researching robust multimodal natural language and discourse understanding for use in monitoring, recording, and summarizing multi-party meetings. Research foci include automatic topic segmentation and extraction, decision detection, multimodal fusion, ontological discourse modelling, robust semantic parsing, and dialogue act detection. Funded by DARPA through SRI.
