When robots are to interact with humans in real-world environments, within concrete task-specific situations, it is essential to endow robots with capabilities for multi-modal natural language processing and understanding. Based on the analysis of human-human communication in task-oriented scenarios, we will discuss the natural language processing capabilities and related mechanisms a robot should be equipped with. This talk gives insights into current basic research in multi-modal natural language understanding and related challenges. ********* Time: Tuesday, 13th June 2017, 6:30 p.m. sharp Location: Oesterreichisches Forschungsinstitut fuer Artificial Intelligence, OFAI Freyung 6, Stiege 6, 1010 Wien OESTERREICHISCHES FORSCHUNGSINSTITUT FUER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Univ.-Prof. Ing.
