Zusammenfassung
This thesis investigates the possibility of utilizing online resources for off-activity dialogue contribution.
It is a first attempt to propose a tool which automatically suggests off-activity talk s
in form of some sentences relevant to the dialogue context. We propose four approaches and
comparatively evaluate them over two test-sets of open domain and health-related queries in a
conversational quiz-like setting. The evaluation results show satisfying performance for some
of the proposed approaches. The results suggest that the modular architecture implemented
throughout this work provides an applicable and effective system to process dialogue context
and suggest relevant off-activity talks.
