Abstract
We present the dialogue module of the
speech-to-speech translation system VERBMOBIL.
We follow the approach that the
solution to dialogue processing in a mediating
scenario can not depend on a single
constrained processing tool, but on a combination
of several simple, efficient, and robust
components. We show how our solution
to dialogue processing works when applied
to real data, and give some examples
where our module contributes to the correct
translation from German to English.
