Claiming that cross-speaker "but" can signal
correction in dialogue, we start by describing
the types of corrections "but" can
communicate by focusing on the Speech
Act (SA) communicated in the previous
turn and address the ways in which "but"
can correct what is communicated. <br>We address
whether "but" corrects the proposition,
the direct SA or the discourse relation
communicated in the previous turn.
We will also briefly address other relations
signalled by cross-turn "but". After presenting
a typology of the situations "but"
can correct, we will address how these corrections
can be modelled in the Information
State model of dialogue, motivating
this work by showing how it can be used to
potentially avoid misunderstandings. We
wrap up by showing how the model presented
here updates beliefs in the Information
State representation of the dialogue
and can be used to facilitate response deliberation.
