Ceccaroni, L., Hernández, J.Z., Martínez, E., Martínez, P. y Verdaguer, X.
A research project, in the framework of the Spanish National Program of Technologies of Services of the Information Society, has been undertaken, whose object was the acquisition and application of new knowledge and techniques that can turn useful to contribute to considerably improve the domain of interactive television. The project, IntegraTV-4all, has been an effort towards a new television for all and to promote the access of people with special needs to the new technologies, with a development adapted and oriented to their possibilities and necessities, which includes both graphical and natural-language interfaces. This paper characterizes the general approach of the project and the artificial-intelligence techniques used, including a dialogue management for the natural-language interface and a virtual narrator in the domain of interactive systems of digital-entertainment consumption.

Abstract. A research project, in the framework of the Spanish National Program of Technologies of Services of the Information Society, has been undertaken, whose object was the acquisition and appli-cation of new knowledge and techniques that can turn useful to contribute to considerably improve the domain of interactive television. The project, IntegraTV-4all, has been an effort towards a new television for all and to promote the access of people with special needs to the new technologies, with a development adapted and oriented to their possibilities and necessities, which includes both graphical and natural-language interfaces. This paper characterizes the general approach of the project and the artificial-intelligence techniques used, including a dialogue management for the natural-language interface and a virtual narrator in the domain of interactive systems of digital-entertainment consump-tion.
[Resumen. En el marco del Programa Nacional de Tecnologías de Servicios de la Sociedad de la In-formación, se ha emprendido un proyecto de investigación cuyo objeto era la adquisición de nuevo conocimiento y el uso de técnicas de inteligencia artificial para contribuir a mejorar las aplicaciones en el dominio de la televisión interactiva. Los resultados del proyecto, IntegraTV-4all, constituyen una contribución hacia una nueva televisión para todos y hacia la promoción del acceso de las personas con necesidades especiales a las nuevas tecnologías. El desarrollo informático, adaptado y orientado a diferentes tipos de necesidades, incluye interfaces gráficas y en lenguaje natural. Se caracterizan las técnicas de inteligencia artificial usadas, que incluyen la gestión del diálogo para la interfaz de lenguaje natural y un narrador virtual en el dominio de los sistemas interactivos de consumo de entretenimiento digital.]
