About

The Cards Corpus of collaborative task-oriented dialogues was collected at various time in 2008, 2010, and 2011 as part of the SUBTLE project.

Version 1.0 consists of 744 transcripts, in CSV format (transcripts/).

Also included are Python classes for working with the data (cards.py), some illustrative examples of how to use the classes, and some basic code for reading the corpus in to R as a single data frame and working with it (cards.R).

For additional information about the corpus, see the slideshow potts-rochester2011-slides.pdf, which is a talk that Potts delivered at the University of Rochester Center for Language Sciences on 2011-09-13.
