CORDIS fornisce collegamenti ai risultati finali pubblici e alle pubblicazioni dei progetti ORIZZONTE.

I link ai risultati e alle pubblicazioni dei progetti del 7° PQ, così come i link ad alcuni tipi di risultati specifici come dataset e software, sono recuperati dinamicamente da .OpenAIRE .

Risultati finali

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Web page

A website will be generated for internal communication (private area for archiving and sharing materials) and also for the engagement of general public (with access to public materials).

Documents, reports (2)

Report on conversation model following the user experience design and requirements

This deliverable will describe the results achieved in tasks 4.1 and 4.2. The report will include the strategies employed for adapting the system conversational model to the user and build user-system trust. Such strategies will be the basis for the dialog manager of the conversational system that will be developed in task 4.3.

Report on user model including mood and anxiety level

This deliverable is the result of task 3.4, it describes the design of the user model and the methods used to update it dynamically both during conversation and offline. This model will be used as a basis to develop the dialogue manager in task 4.3.
