Dealing with DEAL: A Dialogue System for Conversation Training

We present DEAL, a spoken dialogue system for conversation training under development at KTH. DEAL is a game with a spoken language interface designed for second language learners. The system is intended as a multidisciplinary research platform where challenges and potential benefits of combining elements from computer games, dialogue systems and language learning can be explored.
