Chapitre d’ouvrage scientifique
In this work, a Spanish corpus that was developed, within the EMPATHIC project (http://www.empathic-project.eu/) framework, is presented. It was designed for building a dialogue system capable of talking to elderly people and promoting healthy habits, through a coaching model. The corpus, that comprises audio, video an text channels, was acquired by using a Wizard of Oz strategy. It was annotated in terms of different labels according to the different models that are needed in a dialogue system, including an emotion based annotation that will be used to generate empathetic system reactions. The annotation at different levels along with the employed procedure are described and analysed.
