Zusammenfassung

Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) invariably involves dialogue about objects in the environment in which the agents are situated. The paper focuses on the issue of resolving discourse references to such visual objects. The paper addresses the problem using strategies for intra-modal fusion (identifying that different occurrences concern the same object), and inter-modal fusion, (relating object references across different modalities). Core to these strategies are sensori- motoric coordination, and ontology-based mediation between content in different modalities. The approach has been fully implemented, and is illustrated with sev- eral working examples.
