4.4.4 Dialogue context

Context.

(user gets in on third floor)

System:

Which floor do you want?

User:

Ground floor.

System:

I'm taking you to the ground floor.

(trip starts)

User:

I left my bag in the office. Can we go back?

System:

Yes. I'm taking you to the third floor.

The user specifies a target floor. After the trip has started he says that he wants to go ``back''. The system interprets ``back'' in context and understands that the user wants to go to the third floor, where the trip started from.

Current state and possibility of extension: See Section 4.5.4. See also description of elevator, Section 4.3.
