“…Phase 1 consists of cultural dimension, trait and criteria. The level of the selected cultural dimensions are also stated which are high power distance [12], [18]- [20], high collectivism [12], [19]- [21], low uncertainty avoidance [12], [19], [20], moderate masculinity/femininity [12], [19] and long-term relationship [12], [19], [20]. In each of the dimensions, there are traits as the classification for the dimensions such as national, social norm, religion, political, work, school and family.…”

The usage of emoticon in computer-mediated communication has been growing rapidly among users, especially in social media. Emoticon has been used to express feelings, emotions, gestures, actions and places. Despite the growing number of emoticon users around the world, study on the cultural elements of the emoticon is still lacking. This research aims to propose a model for the development of Culturicon, which is Cultural-Based Emoticon. In doing so, a verification process must be done to the proposed model to ensure that the model is well verified. Expert review method was used for the verification method. Experts from the field of Human-Computer Interaction, User Experience and cultural study especially the academicians were chosen. In addition, application developer and graphic designer also were chosen as expert from the industry. The experts were approached by email and performed the verification by answering online questionnaire provided. The result obtained from these experts were analyzed and amendment were made based from the comments and suggestions. Results showed that 91% experts agreed the connections and flows of all components in the proposed model are logical and readable. Expert verification is important to ensure that the model is being develop correctly. By having this model, it can aid designer and developer in designing meaningful and effective Culturicon.

“…However, current DMs are often restricted to predefined dialogue actions leading to a loss in flexibility and robustness. Our aim is to increase the flexibility of the DM by the use of dynamically created dialogue actions in order to adapt the system's behaviour to the user, as proposed for example in [4,6,10,12]. Thus, the conversation agent may appear more familiar and trustworthy and the dialogue may be more effective.…”

In order to take up the challenge of realising user-adaptive system behaviour, we present an extension for the existing OwlSpeak Dialogue Manager which enables the handling of dynamically created dialogue actions. This leads to an increase in flexibility which can be used for adaptation tasks. After the implementation of the modifications and the integration of the Dialogue Manager into a full Spoken Dialogue System, an evaluation of the system has been carried out.The results indicate that the participants were able to conduct meaningful dialogues and that the system performs satisfactorily, showing that the implementation of the Dialogue Manager was successful.

In this work, we present the development and evaluation of a social companion and conversation partner for the special user group of elderly. With the aim of designing a user-adaptive system, we responded to the desires of the elderly which have been identified during various interviews and created a companion which talks and listens to the elderly users. Moreover, we conducted a user study with a small group of retired seniors living at home or in a nursing home. The results show that our companion and its dialogue were perceived very positively and that a social companion and conversation partner is indeed in demand by lonely seniors.
