Title: Analysing OVR dialogue coding scheme 1.0; Report 96-137
Number of annotators:
3 (all computer scientists)
Number of annotated dialogues:
about 500 (in Dutch), with 12000 turns and 16000 segments
Evaluations of scheme:

L.J.M.Rothkrantz-SALT-97.ps.gz
No k -evaluations are published. But the scheme has been used in the VIOS system for dialogues concerning public transport services in the Netlands. Miscommunication between the system and its client occurred in 23% of the dialogues.
Underlying task:
The scheme was designed within the domain of information retrieving
about the services offered by the Dutch public transport.
